Book Reviews of Going Down Jericho Road: The Memphis Strike, Martin Luther King's Last Campaign
Book Review: Excellent Work
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a thorough and judicious yet passionate explanation of the history and significance of the sanitation workers' strike in support of which Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated. The background of the strike in Memphis and its relationship to the national unionization movement is vitally important to understanding where the Civil Rights Movement has been -- and where it ought to go from here.
