Více o knize

Focusing on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s final initiative, the multiracial Poor People's Campaign of 1968, the book explores the experiences of impoverished individuals who gathered in Washington to raise awareness about poverty. It emphasizes their voices, strategies, and the educational significance of the campaign, illustrating how such movements can inform societal understanding. By connecting King's teachings to contemporary issues of inequality and social polarization, it advocates for recognizing him as a leader in both civil and human rights, not just civil rights.
