Challenge 2.0 Episode 5:

In our previous Challenge 2.0 episode, we examined the interconnection of activism, faith and the media during the turbulent era of the 1960’s. We revisited the faith and hope that lived in so many, perhaps expressed best by Dr. Martin Luther King, Junior who said ‘Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars’. Fifty years later, it is evident that injustice, prejudice and alienation remain. That reality brings to mind another statement by Dr. King; “All we say to America is, ‘Be true to what you said on paper’”. So in this episode, we seek to examine what lessons can be drawn from the 1960s in confronting the challenges of today, when we as a society struggle to be true to the principles expressed on paper-in the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Challenge 2.0-Activism, faith and the media…from the 1960’s to today.
