Celebrated Stanford historian Clayborne Carson, director and editor of the Martin Luther King Papers Project, has organized King's extensive writings into a posthumous autobiography. King's early essay highlights the importance of an informed democracy, stating that a nation cannot thrive with one group living in ignorance. This sentiment is woven throughout his career, forming a coherent narrative of his quest for social justice. The autobiography explores King's philosophical training at Morehouse College, Crozer Theological Seminary, and Boston University, where he integrated the teachings of Afro-American theologian Benjamin Mays with the philosophies of Locke, Rousseau, Gandhi, and Thoreau. Readers experience King's trials and triumphs, including the Montgomery Boycott, the iconic "I Have a Dream" speech, the Selma March, and his receipt of the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize. In one of his final speeches, King emphasized that God judges us by the overall trajectory of our lives, not individual mistakes. Carson's editing presents a compelling argument for King's legacy, drawing directly from his writings to illuminate his life circumstances without deifying him.

Relevant and insightful, this Autobiography offers King's seldom discussed views on some of the world's greatest and most controversial figures including John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Mahatma Gandhi and Richard Nixon. This book brings to life a remarkable man whose thoughts and actions speak to our most burning contemporary issues and still inspire our desires, hopes and dreams.
