Civil rights activist Bernice King, daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., accused the pastor who offered the benediction at Donald Trump’s inauguration of having “misused” her father’s ideas to paper over how “inconvenient truth” Republicans’ agenda clashes with the legendary leader’s vision of a more just America.
During the ceremony, Pastor Lorenzo Sewell riffed off key parts of King’s 1963 “I Have a Dream” on the National Mall.
