Omaha reflects on the legacy of Coretta Scott King
by
Carlleen Sturdivant

Many Americans heard the news of Coretta Scott King’s passing. Here at Discover Black Omaha we mourn her passing and at the same time reflect back on her many accomplishments. We feel that we have lost a long time defender and fighter for social justice.

We have a responsibility in our community to continue to work towards equality here in Omaha. Coretta Scott King’s passing had a personal effect on each of us.

We each ask the question, “What have we done to make a difference for our families and our community?”  We came to the conclusion that we still have a lot of work to do. With your help we can become a voice for many here in Omaha that may have something to say, but no where to say it. We want to know how Coretta Scott King’s passing has affected you.  If you have ever met her or spoken with her, please email us and tell of your experience.

We would love to hear from you.
