To the Epoch Times:
On behalf of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, I want to express my warmest greetings to everyone who is celebrating the Lunar Chinese New Year throughout the world.
In commemorating the Chinese New Year, we also celebrate the magnificant contributions of the people of the Chinese diaspora to the progress of civilization. Chinese wisdom, spirituality and enterprise has had a profound impact on our world, as has the grace and elegance of Chinese culture.
Chinese New Year also provides a wonderful opportunity to foster greater understanding, cooperation and goodwill between the people of the Chinese diaspora and other ethnic communities. In this spirit, I wish you the best for a most successful and joyous New Year, with ever-increasing freedom, democracy and peace for all.
Sincerely,
Coretta Scott King
