Forbearance is silence…


Forbearance is silence…

Forbearance is silence,
Virtue of the meek.
Silence is complicity,
Oppression of the weak.



Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, Washington, D.C.

  3. “Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak.”—Martin Luther King Jr., A Time to Break Silence (April 4, 1967)
