Two weeks after his presumably accidental drowning, Rodney King is being memorialized in Los Angeles. The public funeral for Rodney King will feature a eulogy from the Rev. Al Sharpton, who recently released a statement on King.
Sharpton was quoted as saying that King "represented the anti-police brutality and anti-racial profiling movement of our time." He also called the late Rodney King "a symbol of civil rights."
