A review by pickett22
The Radical King by Martin Luther King Jr.
5.0
It's amazing how often I have heard him quoted, but never knew those quotes in context. I'm sorry it took me this long to listen to some of his speeches in their entirety.
I was listening to it on audiobook, and Jasmine popped into my room at one point after having overheard most of one of his speeches, and comment on how alarming it was that so many of his points were still incredibly relevant. I had that thought an awful lot myself. In the Beyond Vietnam speech, everything he was saying could be applied to today. Different war, same problems. Which, honestly, he predicted in that speech. "We need to address these things or here is what will happen," and he was right.
