Additional information
by Martin Luther King (Author), Lewis V. Baldwin (Editor), Charlayne Hunter-Gault (Foreword by)
This collection of writings is the first to capture Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s global vision, revealing how his fight for human rights extended far beyond the United States.
Too many people continue to think of Dr. King only as "a southern civil rights leader" or "an American Gandhi," thus ignoring his impact on poor and oppressed people around the world. "In a Single Garment of Destiny" is the first book to treat King's positions on global liberation struggles through the prism of his own words and activities.
