Summary: Why we protest in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963.
Comment: I often wonder why we honor Martin Luther King with a holiday. For those who wonder why, read this book. In this book, King uses non violent techniques to force a change in the structure of race relations in this brutal city. The sixties could have been such a violent time in America had it not been for Dr. King.
With his techniques, he changed the social landscape in the deep South for the better. Why we can't wait is his reason why blacks should not tolerate a gradual change in race relations, but one that recognizes that change is needed as soon as possible.
Rating: 5
Summary: Every American should read this
Comment: Dr. King's "Why We Can't Wait" is a remarkable book. The chapter containing the famous "Letter from Birmingham Jail" is one of the great political, religious and social works humanity has ever produced. If you read nothing else about the civil rights movement, or about Martin Luther King, this letter will show you why it was the right thing to do, why he won a Nobel Peace Prize, and why America (and the world) is a better place because King lived.
Every American should read two documents: The Constitution and "The Letter from Birmingham Jail."
Rating: 5
Summary: Captivating and real
Comment: What can I say that the other reviews haven't already said? This is a must-have for anyone interested in the major issue that has consumed our country and most of the world for so long. Well-written, well-researched, and well. . . just a plain good read. Highly recommended.
Also recommended: The Color Purple, Bark of the Dogwood, End of Blackness
