The Real Dr. King with Jonathan Eig

Here's Where It Gets Interesting - Podcast tekijän mukaan Sharon McMahon - Maanantaisin

Kategoriat:

Today on Here’s Where It Gets Interesting, Sharon talks with Jonathan Eig, the author of the new Martin Luther King Jr. biography, King: A Life. Eig spent six full years researching and writing about King’s life. He shares countless moments and pieces of King’s story that get left out of the general image we have of the I Have a Dream preacher. He also argues that, through honoring the Civil Rights activist with a holiday and through flashy quotes and merch like mugs and tees, we lose sight of the real King and his radicalism. Special thanks to our guest, Jonathan Eig, for joining us today. Find King: A Life here.
