Early reviews of Jonathan Eig's MLK biography suggest that perhaps for the first time, we are going to have access to the full story of King. I look forward to reading the entire thing, writes author and columnist John Warner.
Because of documentation Jonathan Eig uncovered in the process of researching the newly released book “King: A Life,” which looks to be the definitive telling of the life of Martin Luther King Jr., it seems as if a big part of what I found so compelling about Malcolm X may not be wholly accurate.
I’d been raised on the story of MLK as the secular saint of nonviolence who had been martyred for the cause but was the example all should follow. I knew short snippets of his “I Have a Dream” speech and had dutifully read “Letter from Birmingham Jail” in multiple English classes. At the time, looking around at my nearly all-white suburb in Ronald Reagan’s America, I was sympathetic to Malcolm’s point of view. I did not see progress, and the sanctification of MLK seemed like an attempt to turn away from the responsibility to continue to redress wrongs.
