John,

Today, on Martin Luther King Day Jr. Day, we’re reflecting on Dr. King’s
legacy — not only as a champion of civil rights, but as one of the most
powerful voices for peace this country has ever known.

[1]MFOL
Jaclyn Corin and Yolanda Renee King, the grandchild of Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr., at the first ever 2018 historic March For Our Lives Rally.

Dr. King understood something that remains deeply relevant today: violence
is not inevitable. It is a choice — shaped by policy, culture, and whose
lives we choose to protect.

Dr. King warned of a society that normalizes violence and calls it
strength. He spoke about the moral cost of accepting bloodshed as
unavoidable, and the responsibility each generation has to reject that
lie.

At March For Our Lives, we carry that lesson with us.

Our work to end gun violence is rooted in the same belief that guided Dr.
King’s life: that justice and peace are inseparable, and that young people
have both the power and obligation to demand better. We believe in
nonviolence not as passivity, but as courage — the courage to confront
systems that profit from harm and to imagine a safer future for everyone.

His death was a devastating instance of how gun violence can cut down
voices fighting for justice and a reminder of why we must act to end this
epidemic.

Dr. King’s life and death reminded us that progress is not automatic. It
is built by ordinary people who refuse to look away.

Today, we honor his legacy by recommitting ourselves to that work —
organizing, advocating and building a movement grounded in dignity,
accountability and peace.

Thank you for being a part of this community and for standing with young
people who continue to believe, as Dr. King did, that a more just and
peaceful world is possible.

In solidarity,

March For Our Lives
