nation where they will not be judged by the
color of their skin but by the content of their
character,” he said.
Nearly 42 years later, his son says his
father's dream still has not been realized. “My
father characterized most of our problems in
three areas: poverty, racism and violence,”
King says. “While we have made great strides
as a nation and a world, we still have a long
way to go before we abolish poverty. In fact,
we’re going the wrong way now.
“Violence is escalating all over the world,
whether it’s in schools or domestic violence or
just random violence, and obviously in terms
of world conflict, terrorism. We talk about
racism in every genre now. We believe any
form of bigotry must be abolished and we
want to work very diligently to achieve that.
“We believe that if people understand the
steps and principles of nonviolence and they
adhere to these principles, our nation and
world will become a better place.”
Becoming his own man
Following in his father’s footsteps, King has
been a human rights activist for most of his
adult life. He's traveled through Africa, Europe
and Asia, delivering the message of nonviolent
conflict resolution for nearly two decades. “I
think that when I traveled with my dad as a
child and later on with my mom, I knew that
ultimately I would be involved in the same
kind of work,” he says. “I was greatly influenced
by the work of my parents.”
