Very rare and desirable containing one of the earliest appearances of King's powerful and iconic I Have a Dream Speech. Baptist minister and activist Martin Luther King Jr. became the most visible spokesperson and leader in the civil rights movement from 1954 through 1968. He is best known for his role in the advancement of civil rights using the tactics of nonviolence and civil disobedience based on his Christian beliefs and inspired by the nonviolent activism of Mahatma Gandhi. King led the 1955 Montgomery bus boycott and in 1957 became the first president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference SCLC. With the SCLC he led an unsuccessful 1962 struggle against segregation in Albany Georgia and helped organize the nonviolent 1963 protests in Birmingham Alabama. He also helped organize the 1963 March on Washington where he delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech. On October 14 1964 King received the Nobel Peace Prize for combating racial inequality through nonviolent resistance. In 1965 he helped to organize the Selma to Montgomery marches and the following year he and the SCLC took the movement north to Chicago to work on segregated housing. In his final years he expanded his focus to include opposition towards poverty and the Vietnam War alienating many of his liberal allies with a 1967 speech titled "Beyond Vietnam". In 1968 King was planning a national occupation of Washington D.C. to be called the Poor People's Campaign when he was assassinated on April 4 in Memphis Tennessee. He was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal. Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established as a holiday in numerous cities and states beginning in 1971 and as a U.S. federal holiday in 1986. The Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on the National Mall in Washington D.C. was dedicated in 2011. Southern Christian Leadership Conference unknown
