ROAD TO REDEMPTION BY PARIS GILES
We’re at the nascency of what may develop into a modern-day civil rights movement, and, like past movements, what has helped capture the hearts and minds of those otherwise inclined to ignore has been the powerful imagery. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hopeful, at other times terrifying – but always moving. As we look forward, let’s also peer back at some of the landmark legislation, grassroots mobilizations and pivotal moments of the last eight decades. A freshly inked law doesn't absolve past sins, and boots on the ground don't automatically become seats at the table. Still, each have inched us closer to realizing that elusive American dream of life, liberty and justice for all.
