Two years ago, Ralph Yarl was shot for simply ringing the wrong doorbell. Today, he’s in college, training in ROTC with hopes of joining the Air Force. I salute him for remaining the resilient young Black man who recovered from his injuries, including a traumatic brain injury, and for carrying that same determination into his post-secondary education. On this day, we celebrate Ralph!

Becoming who we say we are requires inner work—confronting injustice, standing for truth, and committing to love and #nonviolence. The events of January 6th, 2021, reminded us of the work that must continue to protect democracy and make the mission possible. As we approach #MLKDAY2025, let’s do our part with courage, accountability, and a commitment to justice and peace. #MissionPossibleMLK #Nonviolence365 #MissionPossible
