  • More about To the Promised Land: Martin Luther King and the Fight for Economic Justice

To the Promised Land explores Martin Luther King's commitment to the poor and working class, and his call for "non-violent resistance" to all forms of oppression, leading to the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts. It asks us to fulfill his legacy and move towards "the Promised Land" in our own time.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 256 pages
Publication date: 03 May 2019
Publisher: WW Norton & Co


Drawing on a wealth of new scholarship about the civil rights era in America, To the Promised Land delves beyond the iconic portrayal of Martin Luther King as a champion of racial harmony to explore his profound dedication to the marginalized and working classes, as well as his unwavering call for "non-violent resistance" against all forms of oppression, including economic injustice.

Phase one of this transformative struggle resulted in the landmark Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts. In phase two, King spearheaded the organizing of impoverished individuals and led powerful demonstrations in support of union rights, all while tirelessly advocating for a "moral revolution" aimed at replacing the self-serving individualism of the wealthy with a steadfast commitment to the greater good.

To the Promised Land invites us to contemplate the profound implications of fully embracing King's legacy and working towards the "Promised Land" he envisioned for our contemporary times.
