When world-renowned author Toni Morrison visited Northeastern University’s Boston campus in 2013, she told the audience that the quiet force of goodness—a force often overlooked—was more powerful than violence or hatred. The Nobel laureate and Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist died on Monday, Aug. 5, leaving behind whole generations that were inspired by her work—a legacy of goodness.
