These two men from starkly different worlds profoundly influenced each other's personal development. Kennedy's hesitation on civil rights spurred King to greater acts of courage, and King inspired Kennedy to finally make a moral commitment to equality. As America still grapples with the legacy of slavery and the persistence of discrimination, Kennedy and King is a vital, vivid contribution to the literature of the Civil Rights Movement. -- $c publisher's website. 600 10 $a Kennedy, John F. $q (John Fitzgerald), $d 1917-1963. 600 10 $a King, Martin Luther, $c Jr., $d 1929-1968. 650 8 $a African Americans $x History. $x History. 650 8 $a Civil rights movements $x History. 651 8 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1961-1963. 650 8 $a Presidents $x Biography. 650 8 $a African American civil rights workers $x Biography. 700 1 $a Dyson, Michael Eric. 941 $a 1 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20200414013213.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=827176AC7E1511EA9F380FFE96128E48 994 $a C0 $b JINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
