CLEVELAND, OHIO - The civil rights group co-founded in 1957 by Martin Luther King Junior will open its national convention Saturday in Cleveland, Ohio. <br>
<br>
King's son, Martin Luther King the Third, who heads the Southern Christian Leadership Council, said Friday that the group has resolved its internal differences. <br>
<br>
King says the five-day convention should have a more unified look this year. <br>
<br>
Last June the SCLC board chairman criticized King and threatened to fire him over alleged deficiencies in fund-raising, leadership and time away from conference offices. <br>
<br>
Convention speakers include King's widow Coretta Scott King, the Reverend Al Sharpton and King colleague and former U-N Ambassador Andrew Young.
