Today, I pause.
Dr. King didn’t just dream — he worked.
He believed service was love in action, and that progress required courage, sacrifice, and community.
This day always makes me think about legacy — the one I inherited, and the one I’m building.
My father believed in opening doors where none existed. I carry that with me every day as a Black woman, a surgeon, a business owner, and a leader.
Today isn’t about quotes.
It’s about action.
So here’s my ask:
Do one good deed today.
Show kindness where it isn’t expected.
Listen where you usually speak.
Extend grace to someone who doesn’t look like you.
That’s how progress continues.
— Dr. Erin King-Mullins 🖤
