Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his powerful “I Have a Dream”
speech on August 28, 1963. Sixty years later, the speech endures as
a defining moment in the civil rights movement and remains a beacon
in the ongoing struggle for racial equality. This gripping book
tells the story behind “The Speech” and sheds light on other
key moments of the March on Washington, drawing on interviews with
Clarence Jones, a close friend of and draft speechwriter for Martin
Luther King Jr.; Joan Baez, who sang at the march; as well as
Angela Davis and other leading civil rights luminaries. Now with a
new introduction to mark the 60th anniversary of that historic day
in Washington, The Speech offers an essential analysis of King’s
words at a moment of urgent reckoning and renewed calls for justice
and liberation.
