Drawing upon a wide-ranging selection of scholarship and popular history, this invaluable sourcebook throws a powerful light on the civil rights movement and its most influential leader.

Martin Luther King, Jr and the Civil Rights Movement covers wider movement issues such as:
- National and local leadership styles.
- The role of women and gender.
- Violence and non-violence.
- Integration and separatism.
It also examines specific issues related to King, including:
- Family, church and educational influences.
- Oratory and authorship.
- King's relationship with Malcolm X and other leaders.
- King's more radical stand during the final years of his life.
- Controversies and debates surrounding his assassination.
- Ongoing efforts to commemorate King's achievements.
Authoritative and stimulating this is an essential resource for anyone with an interest in the man and the movement.
