Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter Bernice warns of the ‘resurgence of white supremacist groups’ and attacks ICE over children who have died in their custody as MLK Day is marked across the US

Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter spoke out against white supremacy, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement's treatment of children and other social inequalities during a speech on Monday.

Dr. Bernice A. King, the youngest daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., delivered a powerful speech at the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia, that insisted that one day of focusing on her father's teachings 'were not enough.'

'In these times of increased political and ideological polarization, catastrophic environmental threats and injustice, continual racial hatred and discrimination - a day on is not enough,' she said.

'In the face of widening income and wealth gaps, out of control police officers who have no regard for the value of black lives, a day on is not enough.'

The race hatred that you see now comes from those like Al Sharpton, Obama and the ones who hate law any law it is about fanning hatred in America and dividing it more every day. Instead of loving our Country and what it stands for it is tearing down all the history and rewriting to suit one purpose the great divide. We have tore down our history statues, disrespecting our first responders, rewriting all law, disrespecting our President. Our enemies love what we have become it plays right into their hands.

The children who have died in ICE temporary detainment facilities haven't died of starvation or beatings. That dozen or so Kids I 2019 died of disease and physical abuse laid upon them before they came to the border.
