These prophetic words, uttered the day before his assassination, challenged those he left behind to see that his "promised land" of racial equality become a reality; a reality to which King devoted the last twelve years of his life.
These words and others are commemorated here in the only major one-volume collection of this seminal twentieth-century American prophet's writings, speeches, interviews, and autobiographical reflections. A Testament of Hope contains Martin Luther King, Jr.'s essential thoughts on nonviolence, social policy, integration, black nationalism, the ethics of love and hope, and more.
Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968.-- The MY HERO Library Staff
