"Jackson’s exhaustive study reveals the centrality of the economic
justice theme in the thoughts of Martin Luther King, Jr. Never before
have King’s social and political ideas been so thoroughly documented
nor so persuasively explicated. Future generations of King scholars
will owe Jackson a debt of gratitude for this monumental book of
enduring value."—Clayborne Carson, Director, Martin Luther King, Jr.,
