Bernice King: 'As the daughter of a leader who was assassinated...'

@berniceking

As the daughter of a leader who was assassinated, I find #Trump's comments distasteful, disturbing, dangerous. His words don't #LiveUp. #MLK

You have no idea what this country went through with JFK, RFK, MLK. It was real, it was bad and these were very dark times.

Without the successes of The Civil Rights Act, The Voting Rights Act, people were truly without a feeling of hope.
