With the King family marching today, we remember that the fight for voting rights takes perseverance. As Dr. King said, “There are no broad highways to lead us easily and inevitably to quick solutions. We must keep going.” May we honor his memory through action forged in faith. pic.twitter.com/Qn1q4EvXN5— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) January 17, 2022

Bob Moses was a hero of mine. His quiet confidence helped shape the civil rights movement, and he inspired generations of young people looking to make a difference. Michelle and I send our prayers to Janet and the rest of the Moses family.— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) July 26, 2021

John Lewis and C.T. Vivian loved this country so much that they risked their lives so that it might live up to its promise. They gave all of themselves to the cause of freedom and justice, and inspired generations to follow their example. Now it’s up to us to continue the work. pic.twitter.com/LZNQHqIUAo— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) July 17, 2021

I want to share this inspiring book about the events leading up to the 1960 election, from Dr. King's imprisonment to student activism in Atlanta to JFK's campaign. It's a story we can all learn from—a story of overlooked heroes and the power each of us has to create change. pic.twitter.com/yIaNJpRq7M— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) February 19, 2021

For decades, John Lewis not only gave all of himself to the cause of freedom and justice, but inspired generations that followed to try to live up to his example. On his birthday, we honor his memory, and work toward continuing his legacy by creating change in our communities.— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) February 22, 2021

Today would have been Congressman John Lewis’ 81st birthday. While my dear friend may no longer be with us, his life and legacy provide an eternal moral compass on which direction to march. May we carry on his mission in the fight for justice and equality for all.— President Biden (@POTUS) February 21, 2021

With so much going on, Dr. King’s leadership is as steadying a force as it’s ever been. I’ve been reflecting a lot on his example, and how it might help us move forward after these last four years. #MLKDay pic.twitter.com/oGCF2wbT18— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) January 18, 2021

A thread of #MLK speeches and sermons in which he speaks truth to power, shares about his philosophy of nonviolence, and expounds on issues of injustice and what our righteous, rigorous response should be. Relevant. Revelatory. Revolutionary. #MLKDay #BelovedCommunity pic.twitter.com/lqyNbBPiym— The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center (@TheKingCenter) January 18, 2021

By sharing Martin Luther King Jr. in color, it reminds folks that the civil rights era was not that long ago. The black and white photos gives white folks especially the sense that it was back in the stone age. It wasn't. Many of our relatives lived this era, they're still here. https://t.co/DpLqqkKkce— Vanessa Clark (@FoxxyGlamKitty) January 18, 2021
