"Leaders must be tough enough to fight, tender enough to cry, human enough to make mistakes, humble enough to admit them, strong enough to absorb the pain and resilient enough to bounce back and keep on moving.”

~Rev. Jesse Louis Jackson

Here in Montclair, our diversity is on full display this month. We will raise the Pan African Flag, light the crescent in recognition of Ramadan, and celebrate with the Lunar New Year parade. These observances side by side are a powerful reminder that community is not built on sameness but on shared respect. We can honor Black history while also honoring the many cultures and faith traditions that strengthen our town.

We are especially proud that our Montclair NAACP Education Committee partnered with the Montclair Public Library to celebrate Langston Hughes’ birthday with a Read A Long event that brought together voices of all ages, from young angelic readers to more seasoned, poetically trained participants. That gathering captured something special. This is the Dream in motion. People learning together, sharing culture together, and showing up together.

We encourage you to not only embrace the fight for freedom, justice and equality for all but to pick it up a notch by joining a committee to help foster a culture of respect for humanity, regardless of race, gender, class or religious affiliation but as one people united!

Diane Tyree-Anglin, President                                                                                           Montclair NAACP
