“For nonviolent response, it seems, does not come naturally to many of us, especially when we feel threatened and subject to the potential violence of others, something that some people feel all the time. And so today, as we remember Dr. King and all he stood for, I thought it best simply to read to you and to myself five of the basic characteristics of nonviolent resistance.”
Bishop Skelton offers reflections as we remember The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
