I've just done a 50-day thread on Coretta Scott King--her life of activism which began long before she met MLK, the Kings' political partnership and her influence on Martin Luther King's thinking, politics and theology. Should I keep going?
Jeanne Theoharis
Today would be Coretta Scott King’s 99th birthday. CSK was a lifelong freedom fighter & more of an activist than MLK when they met. As a student she’d supported the Progressive Party’s 3rd party challenge for president opposing US militarism, racism & economic inequality. We need to know her.
