A civil rights leader was escorted by police out of a North Carolina movie theater after he insisted on using his own chair for medical reasons, prompting an apology from the nation's largest movie theater chain. The incident occurred during a showing of "The Color Purple." The leader, Rev. William Barber II, suffers from ankylosing spondylitis, a disabling bone disease. Barber is co-chair of the national Poor People's Campaign, modeled after an initiative by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Barber previously led protests over voter access at the Statehouse.from World News Headlines, Latest International News, World Breaking News - Times of India https://ift.tt/QDRmpdv
