What is Coretta Scott King famous for?
contributions to the civil rights movement and being the wife to martin Luther king.what you failed to also tell was that she is not only the wife of Martin Luther King Jr but she always stood by him even when she got threats about being killed. Coretta Scott King was an African American author, activist, and civil rights leader. The widow of Dr.Martin Luther King Jr; Coretta helped lead the African American Civil Rights Movement in the 1960's. I think Coretta Scott King is the most important in black history because she made a difference in society, the lives of other black people and the black race itself. Sh contributed greatly to her dreams to excel in education and human rights,she believed that segregation happened for a specific reason that no African American knew. She was determined no matter what to become something in life, despite of how white people treated her or respected her. She is important because others would have given up, if they had to fight for their rights to freedom. Coretta Scott King carried on her husbands legacy, she didn't give up even after Dr.Martin Luther King passed away, she continued the movement and the legacy for blacks to have rights and have freedom. The question is not why is Coretta Scott King is so important, the question is why is she important enough?!
