Bernice King warns against anti-woke rhetoric at Atlanta MLK service

News summary

During a Martin Luther King Jr. Day service at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, the Rev. Bernice King delivered a powerful message condemning anti-woke rhetoric, asserting that such discourse serves to divide and distract from genuine issues of injustice. The event featured a 70-member choir and was marked by prominent signs advocating for justice, freedom, and democracy. King's remarks came at a politically charged moment, coinciding with President Donald Trump's inauguration, which elicited mixed feelings among civil rights leaders. Bishop William Barber II, the keynote speaker, echoed her sentiments, emphasizing that winning an election does not grant a mandate to violate justice. Trump, in his inaugural speech, acknowledged the significance of the King holiday, vowing to honor King’s dream. Ebenezer Baptist Church, where King was both baptized and ordained, remains a historic site in the civil rights movement.
