In the late 1950’s Dr. Martin Luther King Jr introduced the concept of a “Beloved Community”. The idea was that as humans we are incredibly alike...and different all at the same time; when we learn to embrace difference as both important and good we will truly understand “community”. We explore a better way to look at difference—and how we, together, build community.
