出版商概要
<p>"Drawing from his personal journals and records, Carson offers a personal and candid account of his evolution from political activist into a self-described 'activist scholar' in his new book Martin's Dream."--"Black Christian News" <p>"[Carson] details his work on the vast number of King documents he and his colleagues have assembled, his complex interactions with the King family and others, and his evolving view of Dr. King -- from an African American civil rights leader to a farsighted visionary and revolutionary advocate for global peace, economic fairness and social justice. He also calls attention to the significant discoveries of the King Papers project that have received little public attention."--"History News Network"<p>"The founding director of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute reviews his own life, tells how he became involved with the publication of King's papers, and charts the complicated choreography of his relationship with the King family. . .Compelling aspects of memoir and cultural history." --"Kirkus Reviews"<p>"Carson's testament to the universal relevance of King's ideas and farsighted vision behind his emphasis on cooperation among people of all colors adds an insightful perspective on King's mighty accomplishments" --"Publishers Weekly"<p>"A remarkably candid memoir. . . No matter how much you may think you know about the Civil Rights Movement, you will learn from Carson's journey and will likely be surprised by the many challenges he faced as he struggled to define and to preserve Dr. King's many contributions for posterity." --Michelle Alexander, author of the bestselling "The New Jim Crow" <p>"Clayborne Carson's compelling memoir is full of meaningful insights. This book is a must-read!"--Clarence Jones, author of "Behind the Dream"<p>"Clay Carson's compelling personal story confirms Coretta King's wisdom in entrusting the Martin Luther King papers to his care.
