King of the North: The History and Legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.’s Life of Struggle Outside of the South

On the anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s historic speech opposing the Vietnam War (April 4, 1967, at The Riverside Church), join us to celebrate the publication of a major new history of King’s life and struggle outside the South, King of the North.

Jeanne Theoharis and Maya Wiley will have an intimate conversation about Civil Rights activism, and how Martin Luther King Jr.’s life and struggle sheds light on where we are today in this country and where we can go from here.

Books by Jeanne Theoharis (King of the North) and Maya Wiley (Remember, You are a Wiley) will be available for purchase, and a signing will follow the event.
