Mrs. Coretta Scott King
Audio/Video Text
"I think, on many points she educated me. When I met her she was
very concerned about the things we are trying to do now. I never will
forget the first discussion we had when we met was the whole question
of racial injustice and economic injustice and the question of peace.
In her college days she had been actively engaged in movements dealing
with these problems. I must admit---I wish I could say-to satisfy my masculine
ego, that I led her down this path; but I must say we went down together,
because she was as actively involved and concerned when we met as she
is now."
