This week we dove into the life and legacy of Coretta Scott King, the wife of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We felt that she deserved her own episode to really appreciate all the work she did, throughout her life, to further equality in the United States and around the world, alongside MLK and after he was assassinated. Truly an inspiring, courageous, strong, kind, beautiful, wonderful woman we hope her story inspires you as much as it inspired us <3.
