I'm surprised that this story about Coretta Scott King's death has not been mentioned.

To me, she is an inspiration as was her husband. She devoted the last 40 years of her life to continue his dream whilst raising 4 children after the assasination of her husband. It just reminds me that there are genuinely good people in the world who devote their lives to improve the lives of others. May she rest in peace and hopefully, she has been reunited with her husband.

With her death and that of Rosa Parkes, who died last year, the civil rights movement in the USA is poorer without their illuminating presence
