Fifty Years Since MLK

In Fifty Years Since MLK, guest editor and lead essayist Brandon M. Terry writes alongside an array of leading historians to uncover the consequences of King’s canonization, arguing that he was not the conservative moralist he is made out to be. We must, Terry argues, engage the radicalism of King’s ideas-about the nature of racism, the theory of civil disobedience, and the role of ethics in activism-in our struggles for economic and racial justice today. With Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, Barbara Ransby, Bernard E. Harcourt, and many others. Order your copy today: bit.ly/2s2IouE
