She's usually seen as the widow of Martin Luther King. But in reality, she's much more than that.

I'm very much amazed with her work. We won't be able to grasp the impact her life has had for years to come.

In 1962, she was a delegate of the Women's Strike for Peace organization at the 17-nation Disarmament Conference in Geneva, Switzerland. Two years before her husband even won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1964. Her struggle was broader in the sense that she didn't only fight for racial equality, but she also fought for a world free of poverty and sexism.

Set up as an ideal the facing of reality as honestly and as cheerfully as possible.

The reality is we know exactly how to do that in mice and no idea how to do that in people.

Reality is like a chameleon, it often yields the results that please the scientists.
