As many of us anticipate enjoying the day off for Martin Luther King (MLK) Day, we will be urging our staff, family, friends, and community to take time to reflect on the meaning of the holiday. Along with Rosa Parks, Malcolm X, John Lewis, and many others; MLK was a pivotal leader throughout the Civil Rights Movement. A movement that is within our recent history. MLK’s vision extended beyond “peaceful protest,” interweaving the need for economic justice, desegregation, criminal justice, educational justice, and global justice. It is with great urgency that we all continue to honor this by learning from the past AND cultivating a better tomorrow by encouraging diverse perspectives, building community, and embracing humanity.

A nice thing to do on this snowy morning in Wisconsin! ❄️❄️❄️

Texting is easy, but letters are special. 💌 Write a note to a friend or family member — especially someone you haven’t heard from in a bit. It’s a meaningful way to reconnect and show you care.
