About Bernice King
American lawyer and minister
Bernice Albertine King is an American lawyer and minister, born into the civil rights legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King. She is their youngest child, and her life has been shaped by that family history as well as by her own public work. After a personal breakdown in her teens following a documentary about her father, she decided to pursue the ministry. At 17, she was invited to speak at the United Nations, and 20 years after her father’s assassination she preached her trial sermon, drawing on the example of her parents’ activism.
