Beloved Community postcard set

$12

Set of 8 "Beloved Community" postcards Size: 4x6 inches Shipping is included. Artist Bridgette Guerzon Mills was asked to create an uplifting image of resistance for a fundraiser and this mixed media piece was the result. The words were inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s words on the Beloved Community: Dr. King’s Beloved Community is a global vision, in which all people can share in the wealth of the earth. "In the Beloved Community, poverty, hunger and homelessness will not be tolerated because international standards of human decency will not allow it. Racism and all forms of discrimination, bigotry and prejudice will be replaced by an all-inclusive spirit of sisterhood and brotherhood. In the Beloved Community, international disputes will be resolved by peaceful conflict-resolution and reconciliation of adversaries, instead of military power. Love and trust will triumph over fear and hatred. Peace with justice will prevail over war and military conflict." –The King Center.
