It's a 'perversion of truth.' Children of MLK, John Lewis and CT Vivian condemn Georgia voting law
CNN
The children of three late civil rights movement leaders released a joint letter late Monday night to corporate leaders and lawmakers in response to the new voting law in Georgia.
Bernice A. King, the daughter of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.; Al Vivian, the son of the Rev. Cordy Tindell "C.T." Vivian; and John-Miles Lewis, the son of US Rep. John Lewis, said corporate leaders failed to live up to "their racial equity commitments" and disrespected their fathers' tireless work. "Rather than sowing seeds to provide democracy the greatest chance to grow today and prevail tomorrow, legislators are attempting to transport us back to the shameful period of American history when mass voter suppression for communities of color was the law of the land," they wrote in the letter.More Related News
