Alfred Daniel (A. D.) King, sister-in-law to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Dr. Christine King Farris. The Foundation would be honored to have you join us on Saturday, December 7, 2024, at Atlanta Metropolitan State College, Conference Center, 1630 Metropolitan Pkwy, Atlanta, Georgia 30310, for an evening of cultural enrichment as we celebrate the legacy of the Civil Rights movement, We will showcase our youth and pass on the torch to the younger generation of leaders. The struggle continues; every generation must fight to sustain it until we can realize the Beloved Community, where poverty, war/violence, and racism no longer prevail in our communities and our nation.Rev. A. D. King’s sense of purpose and his solid moral conscience led him to continue to fight the “triple evils” of racism, poverty, and war. In addition to his overall leadership and involvement in the Civil Rights Movement, some of Rev. King’s most important contributions were recruiting, training, and mobilizing students engaged in peaceful protests, marches, sit-ins, and rallies. Rev. King was also chosen to lead the Poor People’s Campaign, wherein tens of thousands of people from across the United States gathered at the nation’s capital in Washington, D.C.The 2009 documentary “Rev A D King: Brother to Dream: Behold The Dream” illustrates his commitment to the movement for equity, freedom, jobs, and justice for all. He paid dearly with his life, preaching love and nonviolence as instruments of change, not war.Mrs. Naomi King supported her husband’s activism, often by his side. She picked up the mantle, keeping Rev. A. D. King’s memory and legacy alive. Mrs. King and Dr. Babs Onabanjo established the A. D. King Foundation, which continues her husband’s work with young people around the country and abroad. The foundation's youth programs expose youth to leadership skills, conflict resolution, job readiness, access to healthcare, voting rights, and encouragement to seek secondary education. Mrs. King holds awards and special recognitions, such as the recipient of the S. C. L. C. Rosa Parks Freedom Award, Hope Worldwide Living Legend Award, A. D. King Foundation: Truth Finder Award, Principled Life Award, Zambians Freedom, Justice and Peace Award, Global Citizens Award, Lifetime Achievement Award, African Leadership Magazine, many proclamations from various states and more. She was featured in the AARP documentary “Voices of Civil Rights" and holds NAACP, SCLC, SCLC Women, and the American Bridge Association memberships. She continues to travel and speak around the world. She remains a tireless advocate for youth empowerment. A D King Foundation continues to fight against injustice and racism.
