CAMBRIDGE, MA, UNITED STATES, January 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — In Stride Toward Freedom, Dr. King wrote “Men often hate each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don’t know each other; they don’t know each other because they cannot communicate….” Parents Forum offers a unique opportunity online to learn and practice the Parents Forum approach, based on emotional awareness, at 4pm on January 19th, Martin Luther King Day.
