What Martin Luther King Jr. Taught His Son About Protest
By Virginia Lowman What translates as Martin Luther King III shares memories of his father, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., is the gentle intimacy and admiration between a child and his parent. When we speak in late December, he brings stories of a man whose teachings I’ve studied since I was a young girl, but who I have only known in a scholarly sense.

He recalls the family’s nightly routine, the “kissing spot,” where each child was given a design...
