Dr. King in his own words

In celebration of Martin Luther King Day, we wanted to bring your attention to some new releases from Hachette Audio.

Martin Luther King: The Essential Box Set: The Landmark Speeches and Sermons of Martin Luther King, Jr. This collection brings together 24 original recordings from Dr. King, from “I Have a Dream” to the “A Knock at Midnight” sermon. There are 12 sermons and 12 speeches included in the box set, each introduced by Civil Rights champions such as Desmond Tutu and Rosa Parks.

Martin Luther King Jr., on Leadership: Inspiration and Wisdom for Challenging Times. This audiobook explains how Dr. King led the Civil Rights movement with open communication, powerful language and courage.

The Concise King includes excerpts from Dr. King’s speeches and sermons, with introductions from Rosa Parks, Senator Edward Kennedy and others. This collection would be a great intro to King’s teachings.

If you’re looking for books about Dr. King, we’ve got plenty of coverage on BookPage.com. Check out a few of the following titles: Blessed Are the Peacemakers by Martin Luther King, Jr. and S. Jonathan Bass; The Dream by Drew D. Hansen; and King: The Photobiography of Martin Luther King, Jr. by Bob Adelman.
