Coretta Scott was committed to social justice long before she
met and married Martin Luther King, Jr. She shared in all the
dangers that King's prominence in the civil rights movement
brought, and she saw herself as full partner in the movement. Yet
she generally remained in the background, supporting King's work
and caring for their children, until his assassination transformed
her into a movement leader in her own right: founder of the King
Center, leader of a mass demonstration for a renewed national
commitment to nonviolent social change, force behind the
establishment of the national holiday bearing her husband's name.
This book follows the trajectory of Coretta Scott King's tumultuous
life at the heart of the most important American social movement of
the 20th century.
