"Martin's Message and his Meaning were so powerful..." Coretta Scott King

"So when my husband was no longer there, then I could continue in that cause, and I prayed that God would give me the direction for my life....But then I finally determined that it was the King Center, because Martin's message and his meaning were so powerful....So I felt that my role, then, was to develop an institution, to institutionalize his philosophy, his principles of nonviolence and his methodology of social change, and that's what I have spent my years doing." - Coretta Scott King

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day!
