  4. Love is such a powerful force.
    It's there for everyone to embrace -
    that kind of unconditional love for all of human kind.
    That is the kind of love that impels people to go into
    the community and try to change conditions for others,
    to take risks for what they believe in.

    ‘The Embrace' by Hank Willis Thomas 2023 ⁠

    This monumental bronze sculpture was inspired by a photograph of Martin Luther King, Jr. hugging his wife Coretta following the announcement that he had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.⁠

  18. So waaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiitttttttttt, a Black sculptor creates a giant interactive statue that honors not just #MLK, but also #CorettaScottKing and *also* intends it to honor a message and other local #CivilRights leaders and it gets panned by *checks notes* a conservative columnist from the local conservative paper, the conservative wing of the King family and Bird App people? Ok.

    My take? I love #TheEmbrace and its symbolism.
