Martin Luther King Jr. also famously said, "True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice." This quote emphasizes the importance of justice in achieving lasting peace and harmony within society. King believed that social order and stability could only be achieved when underlying injustices were addressed and rectified. He advocated for nonviolent resistance as a means to challenge systemic inequality and discrimination, ultimately striving for a society based on equality, dignity, and justice for all.

[@BigSnapper]

MLK advocated for about social justice and equality with sensitivity, empathy, and an understanding of historical and systemic injustices.

If an individual knowingly accuse others of racism for political reasons, it could be seen as a calculated tactic aimed at gaining leverage, discrediting opponents, or mobilizing support. This behavior exploits sensitive social issues for personal or political gain, potentially exacerbating societal divisions and undermining genuine efforts to combat racism. It reflects a prioritization of political interests over ethical principles and may contribute to a climate of distrust and polarization. Ultimately, such actions can erode public trust in political processes and impede constructive dialogue on issues of race and equality.

Encourage cultural integration and acceptance in schools and communities. 18. Encourage individuals in schools and communities to stand up against racism and adversity. 19. Provide resources and opportunities for Māori cultural education and understanding. 20. Ensure equitable support for Māori communities and resources to embrace Māori culture. 21. Address disparities and inequities to ensure Māori can exercise self-determination. 22. Uphold religious freedom and honor Māori spiritual practices. 23.
