Dr. King Jr.’s Niece Uses Choice Words for Gay Marriage
By Ruth Manuel-Logan of BlackVoices
The niece of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. addressed a crowd at a National Organization for Marriage rally last weekend in Atlanta. Dr. Alveda King (pictured) passionately addressed the issue of same-sex marriage, stating that it would lead to “extinction” and “genocide.”
King, who is a politician, activist and author, is the daughter of the late slain civil rights leader A.D. King.
A former Georgia House of Representatives member, King is known for speaking her mind about controversial issues, such as abortion and gay marriage. She has been a pro-life crusader and vehemently opposes same-sex marriage. King addressed a crowd of attendees, who were outnumbered by protesters. She spoke out about her family’s commitment to traditional matrimonial values and even claimed that her uncle, Dr. King, and his “lovely wife,” Coretta Scott King, were also on board with this belief system.
