Martin Luther King
- Living the Dream; Quilter Who Walked with King in ‘65 Attends Event Honoring His Legacy at Capitol
What are the chances of having someone who actually marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. at Monday's Roundhouse celebration in Santa Fe, where less than 1 percent of the population is African-American?
Internationally known quilt-maker Mary Lee Bendolph— part of the "Gee's Bend Quilts and Beyond" exhibit at the Museum of International Folk Art— was patiently waiting for a seat in the Capitol rotunda among about 200 attendees.
"I walked with Dr. Martin Luther King in Gee's Bend (Alabama) when he came down," said Bendolph, 72, before the ceremonies for the King birthday holiday.
