Bernice King, the youngest daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King, is not holding back after rapper Sexyy Red posted AI-generated images of her father on social media.
The controversial posts, shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), quickly sparked outrage, with many calling them disrespectful to King’s legacy and the civil rights movement.
The posts featured manipulated images of Sexyy Red in historically significant moments involving Martin Luther King Jr. In one image, the rapper is depicted holding hands with King. Another depicts the rapper next to King during the 1963 March on Washington.
On Tuesday, Bernice King directly addressed the situation, expressing her frustration and disappointment. She wrote, “These images are intentionally dishonoring, deplorable, and disrespectful.”
She went on to remind followers about her father’s sacrifice, saying, “My father is not here to respond himself because he was assassinated for working for your civil and human rights and to end war and poverty. Please delete.”
