For the Rev. Martin Luther King, Sing...

Bono wrote U2's classic song Pride, In the Name of Love, for assassinated black leader Martin Luther King - now the Reverend's family are honouring the Dubliner with a dinner.

As the chilling line in the song goes, "early morning April four, a shot rings out in the Memphis sky," the death of Martin Luther King was one of the saddest moments of the 20th century.

Now the man who wrote those words, Bono, will be honoured by King's widow and the founder of the King Centre - Coretta Scott King for his humanitarian work.

The U2 singer has been invited to the 2004 King Centre Salute to Greatness awards dinner in Atlanta for work on behalf of Third World debt relief and on focusing attention on the AIDS crisis in Africa.

Coretta said of the dinner, "We are fortunate this year to honour Bono for exemplifying many of the qualities that my husband, Martin, indicated were imperative to moving our society into the beloved community of which he so often spoke."
