Alveda King, the niece of Martin Luther King Jr., criticized former President Barack Obama for injecting politics into his speech at the funeral of Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.).
“I guess we should have expected that the left including President Obama would take that occasion for a political moment. They’ll grab at any opportunity,” King said on Fox News on July 31. “I’ve chosen not to politicize the death of Congressman Lewis, but to remember him as a peaceful nonviolent warrior and encourage everyone to resolve our conflicts peacefully.”
