DESCRIPTION

A beautiful commemorative edition of Dr. Martin Luther King's last speech "I've Been to the Mountaintop," part of Dr. King's archives published exclusively by HarperCollins.

On April 3, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood at the pulpit of Mason Temple in Memphis, Tennessee, and delivered what would be his final speech. Voiced in support of the Memphis Sanitation Worker’s Strike, Dr. King's words continue to be powerful and relevant as workers continue to organize, unionize, and strike across various industries today. Withstanding the test of time, this speech serves as a galvanizing call to create and maintain unity among all people.

This beautifully designed hardcover edition presents Dr. King’s speech in its entirety, paying tribute to this extraordinary leader and his immeasurable contribution, and inspiring a new generation of activists dedicated to carrying on the fight for justice and equality.

This essential volume captures Dr. King’s final, powerful message on:

  • Economic Empowerment: Discover Dr. King’s urgent call for economic boycotts and the strengthening of Black institutions—a strategy that remains profoundly relevant today.
  • The Memphis Strike: Understand the full context of the speech, delivered in unwavering support of the striking Memphis sanitation workers and their fight for dignity.
  • Unity and Collective Action: Hear Dr. King’s galvanizing argument for why unity is the essential first step to overcoming oppression, a lesson for every generation.
  • An Enduring Legacy: Presented in a beautifully designed hardcover edition, this is the complete, historic text of Dr. King’s last speech, delivered the day before his assassination.
