Abstract

'Living the Dream' tells the history behind the establishment of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Though Coretta Scott King's mission to honour her husband's commitment to nonviolence was upheld, conservative politicians have sought to use the holiday to advance a whitewashed, nationalistic and even reactionary vision of King's life and thought. This book reveals the lengths that activists had to go to elevate an African American man to the pantheon of national heroes, how conservatives took advantage of the commemoration to bend the arc of King's legacy toward something he never would have expected, and how grassroots causes, unions and antiwar demonstrators continued to try to claim this sanctified day as their own.

Abstract

This book by Cornell Martin reevaluates the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., challenging perceptions of him as merely a nonviolent advocate or a coward. Instead, it presents King as a strategic mastermind who effectively used nonviolence as a strategic tool in the civil rights movement. The book explores the nature of strategy, comparing King's methods to those of historical strategists like Sun Tzu, and discusses the contemporary relevance of his tactics in the context of modern racial issues in America, including the deaths of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. Aimed at readers interested in civil rights, strategy, and American history, the book seeks to shift public perception of King from a victim to a calculated strategist.
