THE HEAVENS MIGHT CRACK The Death and Legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Narrator Dan Woren brings a necessary mix of seriousness and reverence to this audiobook. Racism and race relations are particularly difficult topics to address. It is even more difficult to explain the historical implications and long-term impact of these divisions. The author attempts to provide context with an intimate, unflinchingly honest look at the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. Beginning with the moments directly after his assassination, he looks at the national and international impact of King's death from the perspectives of those who celebrated the news, those who mourned, and those who were moved to activism. This work makes important connections to the ongoing struggles we face today. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2021]
