Photo from the Library of CongressAs we pause on Jan. 16 to reflect on the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., it is prudent to note that the march to justice never ends for people in the BIPOC communities. For every significant step forward (U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who took office in 2022), there are the continued evil-spirited efforts at voter suppression that have marked the last two election cycles.
