- Summary:
- "In 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood before an audience at Stanford University and described two Americas: one of prosperity, opportunity, and dignity, and another plagued by poverty, systemic injustice, and despair. He highlighted the struggles of marginalized communities, emphasizing the urgent need to address racial and economic inequality, and called for unity, compassion, and a commitment to building a just and equitable society. This beautifully designed hardcover edition presents Dr. King's speech in its entirety, paying tribute to this extraordinary leader and his immeasurable contribution, and inspiring a new generation of activists dedicated to carrying on the fight for justice and equality." -- Provided by publisher.
