Dexter Scott King

Dexter Scott King, the youngest son of Martin Luther King Jr and wife, Coretta Scott King, has unfortunately passed away.

I hope the families legacy continues.

Re: Dexter Scott King

[SIZE="a"]I am not very familiar with MLK's family but I think Martin Luther King (MLK) was the best individual to stand for African American Civil Rights in the 1960s. I hate that his words, his emphasis for peace and love, to foster healthy relations between White American and Black Americans, have been overshadowed by those who abide by Malcolm X's philosophy. I believe Malcolm X's philosophy is hurting African Americans, and it further stigmatizes them from White Americans, cops in particular.

We need to educate America and the rest of the world on Martin Luther King (MLK) and his legacy.

I support the love and peace that embodied Martin Luther King's (MLK) philosophy.[/size]
