'We're Insulted': Families Of MLK & Jackie Robinson Bash Trump Over New Ad That Uses Their Images


The families of Martin Luther King Jr. and Jackie Robinson demanded that Trump’s reelection campaign remove images of the late Black icons from their new political ads.

The ad is titled “Say What You Will About America.” The video includes pictures of both King and Robinson. Bernice King took to twitter and called the use of her father’s image is “beyond insulting and not reflective” of who Dr. King was.

Jackie Robinson’s daughter, Sharon Robinson, also tweeted that the Trump campaign does not line up with what Robinson stood for and believed in.
