Descriere magazin:
A Ms. Magazine Most Anticipated Book From the New York Times bestselling author, a radical reframing of the life and work of Martin Luther King Jr. Theoharis shows us through penetrating research and sensitive, scholarly insight that Dr. King not only was keenly aware of the history of antiblack racism in the North, but battled it from the very beginning of his career. --Henry Louis Gates Jr. The Martin Luther King Jr. of popular memory vanquished Jim Crow in the South. But in this myth-shattering book, award-winning and New York Times bestselling historian Jeanne Theoharis argues that King\'s time in Boston, New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago--outside Dixie--was at the heart of his campaign for racial justice. King of the North follows King as he crisscrosses the country from the Northeast to the West Coast, challenging school segregation, police brutality, housing segregation, and job discrimination. For these efforts, he was relentlessly attacked by white liberals, the media, and the federal government. In this bold retelling, King emerges as a someone who not only led a movement but who showed up for other people\'s struggles; a charismatic speaker who also listened and learned; a Black man who experienced police brutality; a minister who lived with and organized alongside the poor; and a husband who--despite his flaws--depended on Coretta Scott King as an intellectual and political guide in the national fight against racism, poverty, and war. King of the North speaks directly to our struggles over racial inequality today. Just as she restored Rosa Parks\'s central place in modern American history, so Theoharis radically expands our understanding of King\'s life and work--a vision of justice unfulfilled in the present.
