As FIFA brings the world to Atlanta, I invite you to experience The King Center.

This is a sacred space of history, learning, and transformation, founded by my mother, Coretta Scott King, to carry forward my father’s legacy of justice, peace, and human dignity.

Soccer/football has a powerful way of bringing nations, cultures, and communities together. May that spirit of unity deepen our commitment to compassion, nonviolence, and creating the Beloved Community.

If you are in Atlanta, join us this evening for a family-friendly World Cup Watch Party as Morocco takes on Haiti. Bring your children, family, and friends for community, snacks, drinks, and fun for all ages.

June 24
6:00 PM
The King Center
449 Auburn Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30312

We look forward to welcoming you.

Love is not passive. Love is not sentimental. Love is not complete if it does not reach the systems, policies, and practices that shape people’s daily lives.

When love is applied to justice, it requires us to care about who is harmed, who is excluded, who is denied dignity, and who is left without protection.

Social justice is one way love becomes visible in public life. It is how we build a society that reflects the humanity we say we believe in.

If we profess belief in God, who is Love, then love must inform how we treat people, how we govern, how we vote, and how we respond to injustice.

Be Love.

“I’m worried about America.”

A right-now word from my father.

Viola Davis is a generational artist and a genuinely humane woman who greatly values community and love-centered work toward sustainable change. I am grateful for the opportunity to honor Viola on January 17th with the 2026 Coretta Scott King Soul of the Nation Award at The King Center’s MLK, Jr. Beloved Community Awards.

May you love yourself enough to raise your standards. You’re worthy of a life you have yet to experience.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

Eventually.

[Dr. Thema @drthema]

May our souls be restored so we don’t have to live perpetually exhausted in survival mode.

“Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.” #MLK #MartinLutherKingJr

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

I want to say to all of the Charlies of the world who are erroneously, yet “declaratively,” conveying that my father’s influence and the way he is honored are unwarranted:

I’m clear on why you do it.

It’s the same reason now that it was then.

It’s the reason that led the government to assassinate him.

It’s a desire to make the ideology of white supremacy, inclusive of economic disparity and militarism to protect unrighteousness empire, a consistent and persistent implementation.

Daddy stood against that, envisioned the eradication of racism, militarism and poverty, and was working on his vision becoming a reality.

The work continues…we won’t stop.

It’s been over 200 days since USAF Senior Airman Roger Fortson was killed in his apartment by a former Florida sheriff's deputy — who now faces a manslaughter charge. We stand strong in demanding accountability. Roger’s legacy will live on as we push for change.

They know your worth! They’re praying you don’t!

[Mike McClure Jr. @PastorMikeJr]

You didn’t break.
That’s why they don’t like you.

This clip is incredibly impactful. Dr. Freddie Haynes of @friendshipwest speaks with undeniable #truth. He delivered his message with clarity and conviction. This is directed at you, @DonnieSwaggart. We refuse to remain silent while our #Blackchurch faces unjust criticism and condemnation, especially when we consider the long-standing #injustices committed under the banner of WHITE #Christianity. We are standing up and taking back our story. You don’t care about the black church, you just scared that you’re losing #power, #control, oh and whiteness. We’re not new to this, we’re true to this! See you at the polls! One more thing #KamalaHarris2024 with my saved, sanctified, & Holy Ghost Filled self!
