“Silence or Action?” is a reflective installation that encourages participants to engage with one of Dr. King’s most challenging and enduring ideas: that silence is not neutral, and that choosing action can be complicated, risky, and deeply personal.

This activity offers space for individual reflection and engagement, inviting participants to think about moments in their own lives when they chose to take action or remained silent, and how those choices align with Dr. King’s message.
