Israel will name a forest in northern Galilee after Coretta Scott King. The Coretta Scott King Forest will comprise at least 10,000 trees and be a living memorial to King's legacy of peace and justice. King, who died last year, is the widow of the late civil rights leader Doctor Martin Luther King Junior. Two members of the Congressional Black Caucus said the initiative would strengthen ties between blacks and Jews dating back to the early Civil Rights Movement.
