Here in the States, we just celebrated Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. This amazing civil rights leader is well-known around the world. What is not as well known is the story of Coretta Scott King, MLK's wife. This woman is so inspiring and played a huge role in Martin Luther King's success and the civil rights movement. This is a story that needs to be told and celebrated right alongside Martin Luther King's story, because his story is intertwined with her story. So many things to talk about, Coretta's story will take two episodes. We also have a heartwarming story of some kids in Minnesota looking out for their classmates with disabilities and a Native American runner who is building a community across the country with other indigenous people. This is a must-listen to episode!

Inspiration. That is what you will find in this episode, plain and simple. Teresa continues her deep dive with Part 2 on the indomitable Coretta Scott King. Everybody should know about this woman and her major role in the Civil Rights Movement. There are also some great stories of people opening up their homes and businesses to help out people (and animals) left in the cold. And learn about Myrtilla Miner who opened up one of the first schools for Black girls in the years leading up to the American Civil War. Take approximately 28 minutes from your day and drink in the inspiration!
