As an educator it saddens me that so many of our people didn't know this. I would also like to add that it makes me happy to see so many people learning this. You're never too old to learn.

I had a terrifying encounter with Marcus in Akron, Ohio, which is my hometown, and where he had relatives. I was walking home from church on a Sunday afternoon, with two friends. He was leaning over a fence glaring at us. As we got closer he began shrieking and shouting obscenities. We were so frightened, we ran across the street. I made a point to study his face, because he was staying up the street from my mother's house. Years later, after having moved to New York City, I saw his photo on the front page of The Daily News, and recognized him as the guy who went berserk behind the fence on a Sunday afternoon.

My mother was a panther. My father a revolutionary from Jersey during the 50s. They fed me with all kinds of black literature and knowledge of my african roots. This is the first time im hearing about this.

As a black British man in my 40s I pride myself on knowing many things about black history. I'm shocked I never knew this story until now. Reading the comments it seems many people didn't know either. How is it possible that such a profound and important black moment in history passed us by?

I remember it clearly. I was 9 and my Father had just preached at Emanuel BC in Chicago. As the service came close to its end, the Pastor, Rev Curry, came to the microphone to sadly announce that Mrs King had been assassinated at the organ during service at Ebenezer. It became so silent and people just sat there. A few people cried out loud.

It's a memory that has stuck with me all my life.

I am 63 and today years old when I learned about this on tiktok. Thank you for this story.

[orishejuukuedojor]

This story was hidden in plain sight for decades. Thanks for bringing awareness and sharing the details. Sad thing is the King family suffered more than the loss we learned here and of course Dr. Martin... We owe that family so much.

[gerardlee]

I felt a coldness and shock as you were telling this story. How could this black young man believe by killing Alberta King would solve anything. Truly a sick mind.

[VashStampede-clwp]

How you gonna shoot an old lady in a church

[dorothyesked]

I'm sixty-eight years old. Never knew about this. Truly hearbreaking what the King family had endured.😢 Thank you for sharing this story.

[rickyparrilla]

I'm 53 born and raised in NYC and I never knew this happened never heard of this until today on YouTube. Unbelievable, thank you to the person who posted this story.

I grew up in Atlanta, and remember this incident vividly, even though I was quite young. It was so bizarre and sad and scary. The local news showed images of the bloody organ keyboard. All of my life I've been shocked that this incident has not been talked about more. It's like it happened one day and was forgotten the next. Thank you for making this video and getting this incident back out in the open and giving us some answers as to how and why it happened. Just a terrible thing. It affected me deeply.

Thank you for sharing. MLK's brother also perished in a tragic, suspicious way. Blessings to the family, and descendants. Continue to be "Lights" in the darkness.

As a Yisraelite Teacher from Cincinnati, Ohio we condemn ALL acts of violence against our People. My Teacher was under HananiYAH and we were taught to NOT be talebearers, NEITHER STAND AGAINST THE BLOOD OF THY NEIGHBOR. Leviticus 19:15-18, Proverbs 10:12 and Zechariah 7:8-10

We hate what happened to our Beloved Brother Dr. Martin Luther King and his Family. May YHWH Bless his Family for Generations to come. HalleluYAHx7...
