year older than Taiyania
when she died. 
“[His death] was some-
thing that she had to
carry with [her],” sister
Tiashaundra Thompson
said.

For years, Taiyania
yearned for her father,
her family said. 
Taiyania’s sister Tian-
dra said two have been
reunited in death.
“He’s gone and she’s
up there with him,” she
said, “and that’s all that
she basically ever want-
ed. That’s all she ever
needed.  Nothing here

you can ever make that

King assassination
was April 4, 1968
The poll was taken
about six weeks ahead of
the 50th anniversary of
King’s death.
King was shot and
killed April 4, 1968, out-
side his second-floor
room at the Lorraine
Motel in Memphis, Ten-
nessee, by segregation-
ist James Earl Ray. King
has since been acknowl-
edged as an American
hero for his quest for
freedom, justice, equal-
ity and peace among all
races.
The poll found only
one area — voting rights
— where a majority said
a lot of progress has been
made for racial equali-
ty since the civil rights
movement.
In total, 57 percent of
Americans said there
has been major progress
on equal voting rights,
though just 39 percent
said there has been ma-
jor progress on political
representation for Afri-
can Americans.
Close to half said there
has been major progress
on reducing segregation
in public life — 47 per-
cent — and equal access
to good education — 48
percent.
About a third said there
has been at least some
Nearly half say little
to no progress on
criminal justice
On the lowest end of the
spectrum, just 23 per-
cent said there has been a
great deal of progress in
fair treatment of Blacks
by police or the crimi-
nal justice system, and
nearly half said there has
been little to no progress
in either of those areas.
Whites were more like-
ly than Blacks to think
there has been progress
in every area asked about
in the poll.
Blacks are “claiming
racism but I don’t see
it myself,” said Tommy
Romero, 47, of Louisiana,
who is White.
“They’re claiming it but
it’s all about what they
feel about the past, slav-
ery and everything else.”
Romero said that things
overall have gotten much
better considering the
racism of the past, espe-
cially in the South.

on this earth, on this
world, could’ve satisfied
her but that.”
Lajoyina Thompson
said her daughter left
her a message in a post
Taiyania made on social
media.
In the comment, writ-
ten weeks before her
passing, Taiyania re-
ferred to her mother
back then,” he said. “The
way minorities were
treated, drinking at sep-
arate fountains, eating
at separate restaurants,
and sitting on certain
parts of the bus, stuff like
that, police beating on
them, that just made no
sense.”
Republicans see
progress more
than Democrats
In general, 54 percent
of Republicans and just
14 percent of Democrats
think most or all of the
goals of the civil rights
movement have been
achieved.
That ranged from 76
percent of Republicans
and 46 percent of Dem-
ocrats saying there has
been a lot of progress on
voting rights, to 43 per-
cent of Republicans and
9 percent of Democrats
saying there has been a
lot of progress on fair
treatment by police.

as a “strong, beautiful,
young, black queen.”
“I think that’s why I’m
able to stay as strong as
I am,” her mother said,
“because that was my
daughter’s last image of
me, and I want to uphold
that image that she left
having of me.”
