TIMELINE

This project is part of the larger, ongoing work of Becoming Beloved Community. Words penned by the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. himself, the Beloved Community is "a realistic vision of an achievable society, one in which problems and conflict exist, but are resolved peacefully and without bitterness, a goal that can be accomplished  through courage and determination, and through education and training, if enough people are willing to make the necessary commitment." (via The King Center)

The following timeline is compiled from multiple sources, highlighting key events in black history with inclusion of our parish stories. We hope it will provide perspective and education about the ongoing fight for justice and equity both past and present and the Beloved Community we continue to strive for.
