Bernice A. King vs Sasha Ray — Instagram Profile Comparison

57 years ago today. Me and my mother, #CorettaScottKing, at my father, Rev. Dr. #MartinLutherKingJr’s, funeral service at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. I’m sharing these photos, not to cause sadness, but to remind us of a cause as critical today as it was then. The Triple Evils (racism, poverty, and militarism) that my father was working to eradicate still persist. As a result, families, communities, villages, and nations are mourning at this very moment. Daddy wasn’t assassinated because he said he wanted his children to be judged “by the content of their character.” He was gunned down because he was courageously and strategically working to dismantle those Triple Evils. He was speaking truth to power in government, media, and religion about the Vietnam War, about economic injustice + racial injustice, about ‘The Other America’ (speech at YouTube.com/@TheKingCenter), about the violence of the U.S. government. We can overcome and eradicate persistent evils with persistent, consistent good, as demonstrated by truth and strategic, love-centered, courageous action. My parents believed. I believe. 📸 2- My sister, Yoki (Yolanda), carrying me at the public service for my father at @Morehouse. 3-My paternal grandparents, Reverend MLK, Sr. and Alberta King, at the funeral service for my father at Ebenezer Baptist Church. 4-A grieving brother.
