Oh yeah, the same Alveda King that is a religious conservative, anti-abortion, anti same-sex marriage. Her opinions don't seem to align with the spirit of MLK during the civil rights movement.

She's aligned with Trump due to her fundamentalist religious views, not sure I can trust her just because she's the niece of MLK, being family says nothing about sharing mindset and worldviews, I'm sorry.

You can align with her over anti-racism.

Government should not be in the business of religious marriage, LGBT or otherwise.

Leave religious marriage to religious tribes, however they wish to define a religious marriage.

Similarly, Government marriages / civil partnerships / unions whatever should not be interfered with by religious groups.

I used to be a fundamentalist atheist / progressive, as you appear to be.

I then realised I was turning in to the control freak that I used to despise the religious Right for being in the 2000s.
