Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote and reflected frequently about love. He understood its transformative power and the essential role love played in his mission as the catalyst for positive change. 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 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. Love is explored, championed, and debated around the world. It is the central concern of many religious practices. Readers will get a glimpse at the evolution of his ideas and understand the circumstances in which that theme emerged to lead his concerns.
