Dr. King's best-selling account of the civil rights movement in
Birmingham during the spring and summer of 1963
Often applauded as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s most incisive and
eloquent book, "Why We Can't Wait" recounts the Birmingham campaign
in vivid detail, while underscoring why 1963 was such a crucial
year for the civil rights movement. During this time, Birmingham,
Alabama, was perhaps the most racially segregated city in the
United States, but the campaign launched by Fred Shuttlesworth,
King, and others demonstrated to the world the power of nonviolent
direct action. King examines the history of the civil rights
struggle and the tasks that future generations must accomplish to
bring about full equality. The book also includes the extraordinary
"Letter from Birmingham Jail," which King wrote in April of
1963.
