Biography
Coretta Scott King (1927-2006), married Martin Luther King, Jr. on June 18, 1953, not knowing that he was soon to make his mark as one of the foremost civil rights leaders of the nation. After his death, she became a dynamic civil rights leader and crusader for peace in her own right, leading the 20th anniversary March on Washington (1983). In 1969, Mrs. King founded the Atlanta-based Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, which carries on Dr. King's teachings of nonviolent social protest.
