Peter Ling's acclaimed biography of Martin Luther King Jr provides
a thorough re-examination of both the man and the Civil Rights
Movement, showing how King grew into his leadership role and kept
his faith as the challenges facing the movement strengthened after
1965. Ling combines a detailed narrative of Martin Luther King's
life with the key historiographical debates surrounding him and
places both within the historical context of the Civil Rights
Movement. This fully revised and updated second edition includes an
extended look at Black Power and a detailed analysis of the
memorialization of King since his death, including President
Obama's 50th anniversary address, and how conservative spokesmen
have tried to appropriate King as an advocate of colour-blindness.
Drawing on the wide-ranging and changing scholarship on the Civil
Rights Movement, this volume condenses research previously
scattered across a larger literature. Peter Ling's crisp and fluent
style captures the drama, irony and pathos of King's life and
provides an excellent introduction for students and others
interested in King, the Civil Rights movement, and America in the
1960s.
