This book sets forth Martin Luther King's Creed as he had come to understand and formulated in a few months before his death. It is thus, in the realist sense, his final testament. I was so impressed by these five transcribed talks that I downloaded the recordings of Dr. King, Jr,, and listened to them as he delivered them, which is even more stunning. Almost 50 years ago now, Dr. King argued persuasively for nonviolence, hope and persistence, and analyzed the roots of my country's social problems. Sadly, these five speeches are still powerful and relevant today. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
From the Dust Jacket: In November and December 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., delivered five lectures for the renowned Massey Lecture Series of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The collection was immediately released as a book under the title Conscience for Change, but after King's assassination in 1968, it was republished as The Trumpet of Conscience. The collection sums up his lasting creed and is his final testament on racism, poverty, and war. Each oration in this volume encompasses a distinct theme and speaks prophetically to today's perils, addressing issues of equality, conscience and war, the mobilization of young people, and nonviolence. Collectively, they reveal some of King's most introspective reflections and final impressions of the movement while illustrating how he never lost sight of our shared goals for justice. The book concludes with "A Christmas Sermon on Peace"--A powerful lecture that was broadcast live from Ebenezer Baptist Church on Christmas Eve in 1967. In it King articulates his long-term vision of nonviolence as a path to world peace. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
