Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once stated, “Love is one of the pinnacle parts of the Christian faith. There is another side called justice, and justice is really love in calculation." Guided by his Christian faith, Dr. King led a movement engaged in direct action through non-violent civil protest. Dr. King worked alongside individuals who were of a variety of faiths, races, ethnicities, genders and sexualities in his quest for freedom and justice for all people.

Each year at Mount Holyoke, the Daughters of Zion, the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life, the Office of Community and Belonging and the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion collaborate on this important program welcoming a guest speaker often an alum of Mount Holyoke to host this very special reflection and Christian service. All are welcome to join us as 2022 speaker, Reverend Tanai Sanders White ’96 delivers a special sermon in honor of Dr. King and the fight for freedom and racial justice.
