WASHINGTON: Joe Biden will travel to South Carolina on Sunday, his last full day as US president, where he will mark a national holiday honoring civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr.
Biden will visit Royal Missionary Baptist Church in Charleston, where he will attend services and speak about “the continued fight to make Dr King´s dream a reality,” a White House official said.
He will also attend an event at the city´s International African American Museum.
Monday is a national holiday in the United States honoring King, the Nobel Peace Prize winner who advocated for the use of non-violent resistance in the fight for equal rights for Black Americans. He was assassinated in 1968.
