BREAKING: Rev. C.T. Vivian, civil rights veteran who worked alongside Martin Luther King Jr, has died age 95.
President Barack Obama awards the Presidential Medal of Freedom to C.T. Vivian in the East Room at the White House.Cordy Tindell Vivian was born July 28, 1924, in Howard County, Mo., but moved to Macomb, Ill., with his mother when he was still a young boy.
Though already a veteran of the movement, Vivian returned to lead the SCLC in 2012 as its interim president. Some saw his return to leadership as lending renewed credibility and a tangible link to the era after the SCLC stagnated for years due to financial mismanagement and infighting. Vivian had a stroke about two months ago but seemed to recover, Rivers said. Then, “he just stopped eating,” he said.
