Default Re: Sad Day In History... Coretta Scott King Dies.

I live in Atlanta so this is pretty big news. Unfortunately, there is a lot of controversy with the King Center as it appears the children and others may have mismanaged things and tried to profit off their father's legacy. There have been a lot of charges of corruption and other improprieties. I hope that does not overshadow some of the good works of MLK, jr.

Not to overshadow the news, but IMHO, I thinks King's kids SHOULD profit off their father's legacy. I mean, the guy was murdered for his beliefs and passion and his kids grew up without him because of that.
If he had not been a leader and stayed home then perhaps their lives would have been richer because of it.

If my dad had left a legacy I'd be typing the book right now!
