The wife of Mrtin Luther king has died. She suffered a heart attack and a stroke a month ago. she died today aged 78yrs. I would put her in the same category as Rosa Parks. She may not have defied the white man by not giving up her seat, but she and her family went thru a lot to try and realise Mrtin Luther king's dream, which as afar as im concerned is far from realised. but then, a bit of it has come to reality so I wont be too negative.
Coretta was there from the beginning, she knew the dangers her husband's activities(and her won) posed to the family but having their civil liberties was more important. All people who have been involved in some kind of liberation struggle have always mentally been prepared to die, to have their families or friends die. They know that many would be sacrificed in the quest for freedom.
She was deprived of a husband, her children struggled to forge their own identity(esopecially the youngest daughter at university) because they had the albatross name"King" hanging around their neck. But they survived, Coretta continued to be brave and involved in the liberation of the minorities in America.
The struggle continues but I salute her for her grace and poise, her charm and intelligence, her humility and her big heart.Martin like most powerful men was no saint, but coretta endured. She had a dignity that is rare among people. Kind of like Rosa. I saw how everyone seemed to be fawining over Rosa and wanting to be associated with her when she got that award at the white house. I was cringing inside and i was glad for her serinity, poise and charm.
There is something to be said for all these women: Coretta Scott King, Rosa Parks, Albertina Sisulu, Adelaide Tambo, Winnie Mandela(barr some of her shenanigans),to mention but a few of women who witnessed horrendous things and had their families go through what most of us never would in a lifetime. they all posess that inner quaility that you are just born with.
I salute Coretta, I hope she has inspired a lot more people to continue campaigning for the emancipation of the opressed.

















5 of us(including a couple of her friends), stayed up the whole night talking about boys, men, children, marriage and shit. Why do females always gravitate towards those conversations? i had to tell them to go since i needed my sleel but it was a fitful 4hrs.
