She's SO Empowered: Coretta Scott King

We've all heard the quote that "behind every great man is a great woman" and one great woman in particular is Mrs. Coretta Scott King. Today, as the rest of the world honors the life and legacy of her husband, Dr. Martin Luther King, let's also take a moment to honor Mrs. King and her tireless efforts working towards equal rights for all. After her husband's death, she took up his cause and helped lead the Civil Rights Movement, but then became very active in the Women's Movement as well. While we might still have a ways to go, it is thanks to the passion of people like Coretta Scott King who have helped us get here.
