Book Overview A remarkable compilation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s reflections on the transformative power of love--a stellar addition to Dr. King'...
A remarkable compilation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s reflections on the transformative power of love--a stellar addition to Dr. King's archives published exclusively by HarperCollins.
"I have also decided to stick with love for I know that love is ultimately the only answer to mankind's problems."--Martin Luther King Jr.
Dr. King, one of the greatest civil rights leaders in history, wrote and reflected frequently about his Christian doctrine of love. He understood its transformative power and the essential role love played in the civil rights movement as the catalyst for positive change and social transformation.
Now for the first time, in this project of the Dr. King archives published exclusively by HarperCollins, readers will get access to many of King's writings on agape love--compiled in a deeply insightful, moving and transformative work of literature. Each section of the book is accompanied by brief introductory editorial remarks that reflect on the historical context of each speech, sermon, and piece of writing, and will further enrich the reader's understanding and appreciation of Dr. King's timeless wisdom on nonviolent resistance.
Love is explored, championed, and debated around the world. It is the central concern of many religious practices and a cornerstone of moral philosophy. Readers are deeply curious about its nature. C.S. Lewis' The Four Loves, Thich Nhat Hanh's How To Love, or even bell hooks' All About Love showcase that readers and writers share this universal longing and fascination to uncover love's mysteries.
This collection of powerful social justice essays represents the first volume in an "On" series from the MLK archives, featuring MLK on various subjects. By grouping his work by subject, readers will get a glimpse at the evolution of his ideas on forgiveness and reconciliation and understand the circumstances in which that theme emerged to lead his concerns.
This essential volume reveals Dr. King's revolutionary vision for the central role of love in the quest for human dignity:
- The Beloved Community: Explore Dr. King's ultimate vision for a society based on justice, equal opportunity, and love for one's fellow human beings.
- Loving Your Enemies: Discover the tactical and spiritual power of nonviolence, and why Dr. King believed that responding to hate with love was an absolute necessity for survival.
- Timeless Wisdom: Gain a new understanding of Dr. King's most profound reflections, with each sermon and speech placed in its unique historical context by new editorial remarks.
- Inspirational Leadership: Witness the evolution of Dr. King's core philosophy and understand how his unwavering commitment to love guided one of history's most consequential movements.
