Yesterday, CAAAV mobilized with Communities united for Police Reform (CPR) at the #Dream4Justice March, one of many actions coordinated nationwide to #ReclaimMLK and his radical legacy. “Nonviolent direct action seeks to create such a crisis and establish such creative tension that a community that has constantly refused to negotiate is forced to confront the issue…I must confess that I am not afraid of the word, tension. I have earnestly worked and preached against violent tension, but there is a type of constructive tension that is necessary for growth… the purpose of direct action is to create a situation so crisis-packed that it will inevitably open the door to negotiation.” - Martin Luther King Jr. (Quotation from: thekingcenter.org/)
