Dear Members and Friends,  

 

At his Restoring Honor Rally on 8/28/10, Glenn Beck introduced Dr. Alveda King, the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, to hundreds of thousands of Patriots who had gathered at the Lincoln Memorial.

             sent 28 buses carrying over 1500 members and friends from the tri-state area.

 

On that day, and today (Martin Luther King Day 2012), Dr. Alveda King delivered a message of real hope.

 

Here's a Fox News report on comments she made earlier this morning:

 

As we remember the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr., his niece, Dr. Alveda King, tells Peter Johnson, Jr. that she believes her uncle would have been considered a pro-life social conservative if he were alive today.

 

Earlier on Fox and Friends, King discussed her uncle's beliefs and said that since MLK was someone who gave his life to all humanity, "he would really support the best quality of life, and that is conception until natural death."

 

"How can the dream survive if we murder our children?" Her uncle believed that man cannot win if he's willing to sacrifice the futures of his children for immediate personal comfort and safety. She explained how this lead her to believe that he felt that a woman has a right to choose what she does with her body, but the baby is not her body.

 

King concluded the interview saying, "I have a dream it's in my genes and the dream comes from the bible, from God, and the principles that are there."

 

Life is hope--a truism that Barack Obama, who ran for President on the theme of hope--has yet to learn. 

 

We're glad Dr. Alveda King is sharing this message, and her uncle's legacy, with a new generation of Americans.
