"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr."

My photos feature the statue of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The incredible sculpture, called "The Stone of Hope," is located in The Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in West Potomac Park, in Washington, D.C. (refer to map below)

The memorial is a tribute to the slain civil rights leader and stands near where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech.

The photographs were taken when my family visited Washington DC during Spring Break when the unforgettable Winter Storm Stella hit back in 2017.

This is my entry to the weekly #Photo52 contest hosted by @photo52 as well as initiated and run by the incredible @wwwiebe.

a nice quote. seems a lot of good visioners knew it and tried to put it, in a different ways. one of my fave quotes by Russian writer Victor Pelevin:

If you will find yourself in the dark and will see at least the faintest ray of light, you should head there, instead of speculating whether it makes sense to it isnt. Maybe that really doesn't make sense. But just sitting in the dark does not make sense anyway.
