Book Reviews of Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community?
Book Review: Civil Rights 1967
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. King's penultimate book provides a snapshot of where we were in 1967. Two turning points had been reached.
First, his program of nonviolent direct action was clearly winning the struggle against old fashioned southern segregation, and Dr. King was looking toward the next step. He believed that the next logical step toward setting people free was a massive government program addressing the problem of poverty.
Second, within the civil rights movement, a "black power" mentality was gaining prominence. Some argued that whites should be excluded from the civil rights movement, and that nonviolence should be abandoned. Dr. King insisted that this approach would only balkanize our country, having disastrous effect, especially on blacks.
As with his other books, the author's brilliance, his scholarship, and his Christian love all come through.
It would be best to read "Stride Toward Freedom" and "Why We Can't Wait" before reading this one.
