HC: I informed one of our student workers about Mrs. King's passing and she said...."Who?"  Damn shame!

That is sooo appalling
of course the news and media have not spent nearly as much time chronicling her life and covering the story as they should. i heard about it from my bf early this morning, tuned in to the news and they talked about it for like 10 seconds. a woman considered by many to be the 1st lady of the civil rights movement deserves more than that.
condolences to the family of Mrs. Coretta Scott King and to the ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. we all lost another powerful, influential African-American woman today. may she rest in peace.
