MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR (1929-1968), civil rights leader and recipient of the Nobel Prize for Peace, inspired and sustained the struggle for freedom, non-violence, interracial brotherhood, and social justice.
JAMES M. WASHINGTON, professor of theology at Union Theological Seminary in New York City, is a leading authority on Martin Luther King, JR., and American religious history.

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. "I Have a Dream: Writings & Speeches That Changed the World (Paperback) On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. stood in front of the Lincoln Memorial looking out over thousands of troubled Americans who had gathered in the name of civil rights and uttered his now famous words, "I have a dream . . ."

Editor James M. Washington arranged the selections chronologically, providing headnotes for each selection that give a running history of the civil rights movement and related events. In his introduction, Washington assesses King's times and significance. *From the citation of the posthumous award of the Presidential Medal of Freedom to the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., July 4, 1977 ISBN: 9780062505521 Condition: Brand New, publisher overstock.
