King To Lead Civil Rights Group
October 30th, 2009![]()
Bernice King will now lead the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the civil rights organization her father, Martin Luther King, Jr., co-founded
From The Grio:
The Southern Christian Leadership Conference announced her election as its eighth president Friday morning. Interim President Byron Clay called King and said she accepted the position.
“In the spirit of your father, Martin Luther King Jr., we look forward with anticipation to your leadership,” Clay told King, 46, as reporters listened to his end of the conversation.
She could be heard responding, “Thank you very much.”
“SCLC is a great organization with a rich history,” Clay told reporters. “She is excited. I am excited. The nation will be excited.”

I have mix emotion about Ms. King leading SCLC, after the way her & her sibling act in a embarrassing public display. They totally disrespect their mother & father great name.

Congrats, to Ms. King –
I know Bernice King will be excellent in the role as president of the SCLC. And I doubt very seriously she will allow her personal family issues of late to interfere with her leadership. She is an excellent scholar and leader and will serve well in her new role.
