Redemption and reckoning across America's past and present
A reflective piece ties Martin Luther King Jr. to ongoing national reckoning on racism and history. It cites Tulsa Race Massacre 1921 and other traumas, critiques bans on teaching critical race theory, and argues for honest confronting of past wrongs to heal and reform society. It honors figures like John Lewis while warning against erasing difficult truths.
