Overview
A vanguard figure in the Civil Rights Movement, Coretta Scott King's life after the victories of the 1950s and 1960s is no less compelling. Born and raised in segregated Alabama, King studied music in college where she met her future husband, Martin Luther King Jr. She was a vocal opponent of apartheid in South Africa, capital punishment, and the Invasion of Iraq. King was also a leading voice in the fight for LGBTQ marriage equality, publically denouncing an amendment advanced by George W. Bush that would ban equal marriage rights for same-sex couples. This compelling book explores the long, expansive life of Coretta Scott King. Chapters discuss growing up with segregation, preparing for a career in music, Montgomery triumph and tragedy, and continuing the fight for civil rights.
