Synopsis

Hermosa edición conmemorativa del discurso Más allá de Vietnam del Dr. Martin Luther King, parte de los archivos del Dr. King publicados exclusivamente por HarperCollins. En 1967, en la iglesia Riverside de la Ciudad de Nueva York, el Dr. King se paró frente a una audiencia entusiasmada y criticó la guerra de Vietnam como un acto de fuerza destructivo y una cruel manipulación de los pobres por parte de ambos bandos. Instó a los ciudadanos a confrontar la dura realidad de la guerra y a seguir un camino en el que todo se nos presente como una elección; en sus palabras: «una elección de coexistencia no violeta en vez de una coaniquilación violenta». Esta edición especial presenta el discurso del Dr. Martin Luther King en su totalidad, en homenaje a este extraordinario líder y su inconmensurable contribución, y para inspirar a una nueva generación de activistas dedicados a continuar la lucha por la justicia y la igualdad.-----A beautiful commemorative edition of Dr. Martin Luther King's speech ""Beyond Vietnam,” part of Dr. King's archives published exclusively by HarperCollins.At New York City's Riverside Church in 1967, Dr. King stood in front of a rapt audience and criticized the Vietnam War as a destructive act of force and a cruel manipulation of the poor—for those fighting on either side.
