You got that right.

[@barbararobinson125]

So proud of the legacy of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr and how his siblings are carying it on and sharing it with the world. Blessings

Awesome 🖐️🙏🌹🌹💪💪💪❤️❤️

[@RonaldJamesR]

I wish I could get a conversation with Ms. Bernice.

[@olgaharris1103]

Me too…that family is so rich!

[@newprincessofpop9208]

I met her two weeks ago at a conference. I tell you she is such a gem. I even got a book signed 😊💗

[@makepeaceu]

I love that Dr Bernice kept saying that she is still growing. Nobody knows everything but everybody knows something.

[@moniquetate2376]

Jemele thank you for this interview, a great way to highlight and bring awareness to the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ❤

[@CEeb5yb]

He cheated on his wife, was a criminal, and espoused far left rhetoric. Not a good man.

[@flashlight5695]

I appreciate Dr King's daughter Bernice being on the program...this is where the views and convictions should be. I truly thank God Almighty for Dr Martin Luther King's and his family's sacrifice.

[@maameyaansiah3154]

Wow! “Truth doesn’t need help” that’s a powerful message 👏👏👏

[@jdpresley5661]

Ms. Jemele Hill, "Thank You!" for this interview and for all you provide. How appropriate on this special day and during these times. Very much appreciated!

[@ReneRamirez-d9h]

The great Dr. Bernice King, we need this women more than ever today. We need that hope. I can listen to her for hours, she can sooth my soul and make me feel like everything will be okay. God Bless Her.

[@catali033]

Great interview! God Bless you both!

[@gpinkard]

I have a lot of respect for this lady. Thanks for the interview❤

[@Effthefbi]

Truth needs no money or motivation....it just needs to be told-

[@gfjchs3n1]

Loved this interview. And when she spoke at the end in legacy it made me immediately think of my son's book on leaving legacy. And as soon as she said that my son called me. I told him about this interview. Thank you again. I'm 70 yrs old. History is always evolving. I am sharing this with others. ❤

[@tammybrown737]

Ignorance meaning lack of knowledge…..Dr. Bernice King was just FIVE years old when her father was assassinated. Dr. MLK, Jr had such a discerning spirit to supernaturally separate fact from fiction see things others couldn’t , what a GIFT.

[@anandaleeke]

Thanks, Jemele and Rev. Bernice King, for a great conversation.

[@cynthiahillian]

I can listen to Dr. King all day long❤

[@bobbierosenthall3582]

God bless Bernice king and her family

[@wilsondoswelliii3127]

You are a jewel, please let God continue to use you Jemele, peace and much love, Also the angel Bernice A, KING.

" Truth doesn't need help." Word.

PowerFULL 💥⚖️🔥Words!

[@MichaelAlexander1967]

I just watched a video of Mrs. Corretta Scott King telling the stories of both Antioch College in Ohio, and New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, so also getting more information from Rev. Dr. Bernice King is also very delightful and informative 😊✌🏽❤. Also my sincere condolences to the King famiily on the recent news of Dexter's passing. I'm grateful that there is so much amazing historical information on the legacy and remarkable works of the King family. All glory and honor to God for the great things he has done 🙏🙏🙌🙌.

[@glenwilson9533]

Happy MLK Day

Much Love Dr Bernice King!!! Great Interview!!! Thank you

[@kathleenregister95]

Thank you, Jemele for your leadership!!! This is my first time watching your show. However, I will be back.❤

[@TheHolyYogi]

God Bless the King 👑 Family🙏🏽❣️We thank you 😊 for the King 👑

[@glenwilson9533]

R.I.H Dr. Martin Luther King

[@olgaharris1103]

I am SO grateful for Ms King! Her family’s sacrifice is so abundant!!! I waved at the freedom riders in 1964 when I was 14. I tear up when I think about those times, and how Dr King and Coretta boldly stood up for all of us to enjoy what we have today! I often say, freedoms were earned in the 60’s, so what are our kids so angry about today! She is right about the ignorance today, and it seems that intelligence is bumping heads with ignorance, and ignorance is winning…😳. Ms King, I understand your frustrations, I feel it too. I for one, am truly grateful to you, your family and the richness of your heritage. My respect for the King family is so high, until I am almost nervous to be commenting on this platform so close to her. Thank you is a simple statement, but the meaning in this case is a total understatement for how I feel.

[@aletheadavis3062]

Dr. B. King has a wonderful paperback titled: Hard question, hear answers. The title alone is profound! Queen Sister King is solid!

[@Grateful6395]

Great interview! I have so much respect for the King family.

[@blezz7773]

Awesome interview 💙 your style jemele great work whether its commentary or sit down interviews 💙

[@aliciaknott8109]

Dr. Bernice King is dropping gems on Jemele today. I love her so much and I miss her comments from the platform I will not mentioned. She's on Spoutible but she's doesn't post as much. This was definitely a surprise Jemele. Thank you!

[@becka_boo]

Such an amazingly inspirational and insightful conversation. I enjoyed this piece thoroughly!

[@AneeshaMoore]

I lit a candle for Dr. King today and thanked him in prayer.

[@sandraatkins2539]

God bless you. Thank you.

[@kathleenregister95]

Such an amazing interview!!! So glad I happened upon it while scrolling through KZbin!!! Dr. Bernice King is brilliant!!! I'm grateful for her ministry and alll that she does to keep her parent's legacy alive!!! May God continue to bless her.❤

Too many People major in the minor and minor 8n the majors. If you've noticed how the world ne2s starts, ei5her violence or entertainment t9m footers. M8chael Mo9re wrote about the "dumbing down" of America. If s3x, money and vi9lence weren't the o4der 9f 5he day...

A race to power is what it is,(socioeconom8c mach8nati9ns).

[@makepeaceu]

Voting is nothing without understanding the system. We vote on looks or party favorites. We as a nation are ignorant as to what government is. How it works. How to make favorable communication about our freedom as humans. The people are the head of the government not the other way around.

[@DavidHuber63]

We live in uncertainties 💜🙏🏼 Bernice

[@walterreed9737]

Wonderful interview.

[@BLueThunDER2012]

Beautiful down to earth lady never knew her sibbling was terminally ill on the forefront fighting a battle but God restored peace dear Bernice, to your beloved brother Dexter king Rip 🌿🌷

[@brendaterrell1443]

KEEP BEING SUCH A GREAT LEADER THAT YOU ARE YOU ARE LIVING YOUR TRUTH KEEP MAKING YOUR PARENTS PROUD

[@joyhobbs5083]

Dr. King came out the wanting clarification on the unbothered mantra. I love it.

[@mimisalazar3133]

It’s refreshing to get to know the King Children, we can see that she’s real , & not necessarily a super human, but yet super all the same. The King legacy survived a lot better than Malcom’s legacy ( his family self destructed)

[@RycheDylOdk]

Thank you for the interview.

[@diane9073]

Thank God for sensitivity….we need it…The Dr. seems balanced. Great interview…we got a chance to hear Dr. King. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@wandakinsey5910]

Truth is true whether people believe it or not. Dr. Bernice is right. Truth does not need help. People do. Lord, help us all to grow.

[@sistersybilgordon4525]

YOUR FATHER WAS A PASTOR A PROPHET A MAN OF GOD THEN A CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER! YOUR MOTHER WAS A TOTAL PACKAGE OF A BLESSED VIRTUOUS WOMAN OF GOD NOW IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS LET IT BE SO LET IT BE DONE NOW AMEN AMEN AMEN AND AMEN!!!

[@lidyanaredeemed9848]

She is really Owesome! Very trustworthy person.

[@Hear4songs]

Feeling grateful for this conversation especially on today. Listening in is soothing my heart. And teaching me stuff. (OK Hegel!) I love how in this intergenerational moment Jemele and Ms. King mutually elevate each other by the distinct platform she has/represents.

[@makepeaceu]

Truth is not always recognized. Some will never accept something whether or not it is truth.

[@firstbornlove8116]

Jemele I appreciate you always digging deeper to give us a better understanding of our legacies and inspiring others continued growth.

[@buckeyewill2166]

See that Emmy in the corner, lady.

[@KayePeasy]

Funny thing… I have a friend who has two Emmy’s from his time at ESPN and his sit of the shelf just like that. As if they are just regular trophies 😂

[@Arbed225]

Very powerful interview.

[@fejoh2024]

Jemele this was an excellent interview. I’m so glad I happened upon it and took the time to listen to it fully. I love Bernice. She is truly a most valuable gem of this age. God bless her and you as well.

[@DemisiaPatriceLockett-df8kj]

The personality see in Selma before I was born in 1968 there are biographies and videos news clippings churches having meeting's about where they are going for example Motown had meeting's before they recorded A song. Every season's there is A different flowers 🌹🏝️. Just like for each city's and states in America. Too get rid of the chirches is too get rid of A foundation covered by united states government has it's protection. Amen hallelujah thank you Jesus and the praying women and the disciples.

[@mikebanks6373]

What a wonderful interview! I worked at The King Center on Auburn avenue in Atlanta, GA 1987 as a volunteer for the King Center thru Friendship Baptist Church, Pastor Rev Guy, I was a friend of Adrian scandrett... Great people...

This is a great interview!

[@MaStan60]

Only imagine how you have to adapt to your own energy.

[@OU812Star69]

I’m glad MLK’s children could $ettle their family issues without selling things off. What we really need is for that FBI file to be unsealed so we can see what’s inside

[@sandraatkins2539]

So am I.

[@makepeaceu]

Jemele your mission is expanding to me. You are a pro at sports and bigger than sports. You are a leader and an inspirational voice in the universe. Peace

[@sandrakillett9242]

Thank you for raising the issue of fragmentation. We can do this by using the truthful approach of acknowledging how we have taken on the role of the oppressor in various aspects, not all. Dr. King and Mrs. King left us a blueprint. We must study and support the generation of today. 💕❤️💯🙏
