Coretta Scott King died 19 years ago. This is an edited version of a post Bernice King made to Facebook back in 2017 (it said "45" back then).
While she did post it, she presented it as "Some Wise Advice Circulating", suggesting that it's most likely something she saw and agreed with rather than advice from her. I think she removed her original post, but she later reposted a slightly modified version. If you're OK with visiting Facebook, here is the link.
Notably, Bernice changed rule 1 in her modified version:
The version in OP has the original rule 1.
So you're saying, follow rule 8.
Also, on first read, I thought it was saying Coretta Scott King posted this, but it says the daughter of MLK and CSK, and never used Bernice's name.
It's a bad, misleading screenshot that doesn't follow its own advice. It should be rewritten to be more accurate.
