I’m in my quiet era. I no longer need to explain myself, respond to everything or prove a point. I am choosing peace.

At a time when fewer people are able to sit down with a book, it’s important to remember the joy and power that can come from reading. And some books don’t just tell a story – they change the way we see the world. That’s why I’m excited to share my latest podcast from @Audible_com and @HGMedia, A Great Book with Barack Obama.

I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.” The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated. #MLK #MLKDay #Mountaintop #MLKDay2026
