Hate is too great a burden to bear.” “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” “In some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty.”

Tybee MLK Human Rights is a 501c3 Non-Profit Organzation, that was founded by Julia and Mallory Pearce in 2013, representing a community entity. The purpose of TybeeMLK is to commemorate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. federal holiday. We continue to carry on Dr.King’s philosophy of love and justice by means of nonviolent community activism. We are a beacon for justice, unity, equality and peace throughout communities. Tybee MLK strives in putting events together sharing history of Tybee Island by giving honor to the stories of our ancestors that came before us, as in Lazaretto Day, Juneteenth, MLK Day, Indigenous Day and UMoja. Bringing all walks of life together as one beloved community in the world.
