(AJC) — Bernice King addressed the controversy surrounding the Southern Christian Leadership Conference on Tuesday while reaching out to the factions involved in an effort to ease tension between the parties.
King, surrounded by her supporters, announced that she was holding a prayer vigil Friday at 6:30 p.m. in light of the turmoil fueled by a heated court battle over who is in charge of the SCLC. The vigil will be held at Ebenezer Baptist Church in the Horizon Sanctuary.
