A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and Speeches of Martin Luther King, Jr. is a compilation of writings and speeches from the life of Martin Luther King from his rise to prominence during the 1956 Birmingham, Alabama, bus boycott to an interview given just ten days before his assassination in 1968 and articles published shortly after. Included in this book are a portion of Dr. King's sermons, speeches, and writings supporting his strong beliefs that nonviolent active protest is the only safe way in which the Negro people could gain the civil rights promised them in the Emancipation Proclamation of 1864.
