American activist and executive
Xernona Clayton, who worked with her husband, Edward T. Clayton, at the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the organization of Martin Luther King Jr., also mentioned by Christie's, recalls the pride she felt at the time: “Both [King and Clayton] had a perfect harmony in writing and words. They exchanged ideas constantly, and there was a profound respect between them. […] I loved watching them. It was a privilege. And now the world will have the opportunity to see these words that continue to inspire hope, freedom, and the pursuit of equality.” #MartinLutherKing #DireitosHumanos #Leilão (translated)
