Another book on MLK?Yes -- and perhaps the best one yet This volume combines letters (to and from King), speeches,newspaper articles, and other texts to illustrate the King's depth.We seehis religious upbringing, as evidenced in the influences of Ghandi andChristianity; his talent as a minister and an administrator, suggested bythe National Baptist Convention's invitation to serve them as theirpresident; and his intellectual aptitudes, shown in the strategy heemployed in the Montgomery protest.His decision to move towardincremental change (with full equality as a long-term end) is a majorreason why the Montgomery movement succeeded.Had he opted for anall-or-nothing, now-or-never approach, he would have encountered greaterresistance, and the movement might have ended while achieving little or noprogress.Instead,he lobbied for minor changes in an effort to gainmomentum for the larger movement -- an approach dismissed by more radicalmembers of the African-American community.For its insights into King thepreacher, King the scholar, King the strategic activist, this text is avaluable addition to the legacy of arguably the most influential Americanof the last century -- and likely the most influential one never to serveas U.S. President. ...

Editorial Review Product Description I have a dream. Those rousing words, spoken by Martin Luther King, Jr. at an historic civil rights rally in Washington, D.C., brought hope to those who listened: hope that in the future there might not be two Americas—one black and one white—but instead a country united, with justice for all. Here is King’s inspiring story, which began in Atlanta, Georgia in 1929 and came to a tragic end on April 4, 1968 when an assassin fatally shot him. The pastor of a small Baptist church in Montgomery, Alabama, King became the driving force of the civil rights movement when he led a black boycott of the city’s bus lines. His philosophy of nonviolence, and his breathtaking eloquence, helped free African Americans from decades of oppression and finally won them the rights—and opportunities—they deserved. |

Editorial Review Product Description Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is one of the most celebrated figures of the twentieth century. A crusader for nonviolent social justice, he led African Americans in their demands for equality through peaceful protests during one of the most tumultuous times in recent history. Set against key moments in the civil rights movement, here is the story of the powerful, eloquent spiritual leader and his belief that nonviolence could be used to overcome racial discrimination. Walter Dean Myers's moving narrative and Leonard Jenkins's compelling paintings portray a vivid and striking image of the man who moved American society closer to the ideals of freedom and fairness. Dr. King's dream that all Americans would be judged by their individual actions and character is one we still cherish today. Customer Reviews (2)

Editorial Review Product Description In Volume IV, with the Montgomery bus boycott at an end, King confrontsthe sudden demands of celebrity while trying to identify the next steps in theburgeoning struggle for equality. Anxious to duplicate the success of the boycott, hespends much of 1957 and 1958 establishing the Southern Christian LeadershipConference. But advancing the movement in the face of dogged resistance, he finds thatit is easier to inspire supporters with his potent oratory than to organize amass movement for social change. Yet King remains committed: "The vastpossibilities of a nonviolent, non-cooperative approach to the solution of the race problemare still challenging indeed. I would like to remain a part of the unfoldingdevelopment of this approach for a few more years." King's budding international prestige is affirmed in March 1957, whenhe attends the independence ceremonies in Ghana, West Africa. Two months laterhis first national address, at the "Prayer Pilgrimage for Freedom," is widelypraised, and in June 1958, King's increasing prominence is recognized with along-overdue White House meeting. During this period King also cultivates alliances withthe labor and pacifist movements, and international anticolonial organizations.As Volume IV closes, King is enjoying the acclaim that has greeted his firstbook, Stride Toward Freedom, only to suffer a near-fatal stabbing in New York City. Along with their historical significance, these writings reveal the human side of King as well. In a sermon delivered in Birmingham, Alabama, around the time of several bombings in black neighborhoods, a crestfallen King asked a haunting question: "Where is God while hundreds and thousands of his children suffer merely because they are desirous of having freedom and human dignity?" In his acceptance speech for the NAACP Spingarn Medal in Detroit, he proclaimed, "This is a great time to be alive in America. We stand today on the threshold of the most constructive period of our nation's history.... It is one of the ironies of present history that the Negro, in his struggle for freedom, is no longer struggling for himself alone, but he is really struggling to save America." In a letter, he cites Gandhi and Henry David Thoreau as intellectual influences. There are also interesting correspondences between King and Harry Belafonte, Elijah Muhammad, C.L.R. James, Eleanor Roosevelt, and many others, making this an excellent reference work to this complex warrior for peace. --Eugene Holley Jr. |
