Black minister and civil rights activist who "drowned" a year after the assassination of his brother, Martin Luther King Jr. |
Alfred Daniel Williams King was an American Baptist minister and civil rights activist. He was the younger brother of Martin Luther King Jr.
Death
Found drowned in his swimming pool.[1] No water was found in his lungs.[2] The official narrative stresses his alleged depression and alcoholism.[3]
His widow, Naomi King, wrote "I believe that my husband was killed. Many others have come to the same conclusion.....I am convinced that he was murdered because they could not stand living with the power of two Kings, ML and AD walking this earth; dreaming the same dream; demanding the freedom that didn't just belong to them----it belonged to us all."..."When I examined his body at the mortuary before he was released for burial, I clearly saw that he had rings around his neck and bruises on his head and stomach."[2]
