"The arc is a long one. My eye reaches but little ways. I cannot calculate the curve and complete the figure by experience of sight. I can divine it by conscience. And from what I see, I am sure it bends towards justice." (2/) — PolitiTweet.org

In 1853, abolitionist Theodore Parker delivered a sermon I find myself thinking about today, as we commemorate Juneteenth and the freeing of the final remnants of slavery 2 yrs after the Emancipation Proclamation. He said, "I do not pretend to understand the moral universe.” (1/) — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we're more familiar with Parker's words through the words of another: Martin Luther King, Jr. Their words remind us that that progress and freedom and change do not come easily, even when they are in the absolute right. (3/) — PolitiTweet.org
