Welcome to AJC! | ajc.com: "Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporters Ernie Suggs, Jill Young Miller and Mae Gentry have found that the nonprofit Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change is literally falling apart, and the financial condition of the center has steadily declined.
Despite nearly $12 million in desperately needed repair work, the family-run King Center has become little more than a cushy jobs program for his sons, who are drawing obscenely high salaries and running the place like absentee landlords. Martin, the oldest son, is pulling down $150,000 a year as president and CEO. Baby brother Dexter, the former CEO and now chief operating officer, gets a $179,000 salary plus $8,700 in benefits and other compensation, even though he is pursuing a Hollywood career. Both men are making more than executives in comparable nonprofits. "
