Martin Luther King Junior: His Life and Message
Martin Luther King, Junior, the apostle of nonviolence and the crusader of social justice, was shot dead on April 4, 1968, by a misguided white racist, in the course of his struggle for a better world where peace, love and justice would reign supreme, irrespective of race or colour. But sixteen years after his death, America set aside a day in every January as a national holiday in recognition of what he accomplished for humanity. History has therefore vindicated him. In this book, the author gives a brief account of that struggle. King's dream was to make America a place where a person's worth should be determined not by the colour of his skin but by his deed. Like the biblical Moses, he did not live to see the promised land of his dream. But events spanning from his death to this day bear eloquent testimony that he was not a wishful dreamer. Twenty-seven years after his death (1968-1995), the contents of his dream have been able to stand the test of time. His life and action have proved to the world that love can exist in the midst of virulent racial hatred and that nonviolence can thrive in the ghetto of racial violence. Above all, we learn from him that what counts most in a person's life is not how long but how well he lived. King lived and died for a noble cause - to redeem the image of white Americans, stained by hundreds of years of slavery, social injustice and racial prejudice, and to save the personhood of black Americans. That is why he remains a man for all times.
