Our country has experienced many divisive dark days, but God’s hand has guided us through it all. - Bernice King

When I saw the funeral scene, I just broke down. I ran out of the cabin into the woods, and for nearly 2-1/2 hours, I just cried: "Why, God, did You take him?"

The most intimidating part for me has to do with the whole legacy, and knowing it is a legacy in line with the Christian tradition. I think about Abraham and his son Isaac, and it's kind of frightening.

I stand before you as a child of the most high God and citizen of his kingdom, a daughter of the greatest movement of nonviolent social change in our world, a steward of the King legacy and an aggrieved, yet hopeful sister.
