Publisher description
This third volume chronicles the Montgomery bus boycott of 1956 and Dr
King's emergence as a public figure who attracted international attention.
Included is the speech he gave on the first day of the bus boycott, transcribed
from a tape recording and published here in its entirety. Also included are his
remarks to an angry crowd after the bombing of his home and his powerful speech
at the 1956 NAACP convention. King's words from this period reveal the
evolution of his distinctive blend of Christian and Ghandian ideas and show his
appreciation of the broader significance of the Montgomery Movement, a protest
that revealed the "longing for human dignity that motivates oppressed people
all over the world". This third volume chronicles the Montgomery bus boycott of 1956 and Dr
King's emergence as a public figure who attracted international attention.
Included are the speeches he gave on the first day of the bus boycott and at
the 1956 NAACP convention.
