Description
Summary:This essay looks at Martin Luther King Jr.'s last will and testament, found in his final publication, The Trumpet of Conscience. The summation and new direction of his vision is divided into five chapters, each of which presents fresh and provocative developments in King's intellectual and faith journey. He truly had become a global citizen rooted in the everyday struggles of his community and that of the poor. The question remains: how do King's words and legacy sound today?
