Martin Luther King, Jr.
The Essential Box Set
The Landmark Speeches and Sermons of Martin Luther King, Jr.
by Dr. Clayborne Carson, Peter Holloran, Kris Shepard
This fifteen disc collection of speeches, sermons, and commentaries of Dr. Martin Luther
King is, by far, the largest collection of critical speeches and commentaries of this great
leader available in one set. Comprised of recordings previously included in
A Call to
Conscience and
A Knock at
Midnight, this collection details the life and teachings in a way that carries
the listener through Martin Luther King Jr.'s inspired career path in only 16 hours. The
listener finds himself listening intently, knowing about the end times of Martin's life,
and growing more concerned that his message was never understood.
This is the stuff from which dreams are remade. We are reminded that his dream is still
our dream and this set brings that dream back to life, back to the forefront of our
consciousness, back to the immediacy of our needs. I cannot say enough and almost dare not
say anything. I sat humbled as I listened. I remember his life and death. I remember his
dream. I remember it hasn't yet been fulfilled and that saddens me as much as the death of
the dreamer. There is not a church, a school, a classroom, a community center, or library
that can afford to do without this collection. We owe it to Martin Luther King Jr. We owe
it to us. We owe it to our nation. We owe it especially to our children. |
