In 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., isolated himself fromthe demands of the civil rights movement, rented a house in Jamaica with notelephone, and labored over his final manuscript. In this prophetic work…helays out his thoughts, plans, and dreams for America's future, including theneed for better jobs, higher wages, decent housing, and quality education. Witha universal message of hope that continues to resonate, King demanded an end toglobal suffering, asserting that humankind – for the first time – has theresources and technology to eradicate poverty.
“[Dr. King’s] unique ability to connect the life of the mind to the struggle forfreedom is legendary, and in this book – his last grand expression of hisvision – he put forward his most prophetic challenge to powers that be and hismost progressive program for the wretched of the earth.”– Cornel West,author of Race Matters
