An Interactive Biography of Martin Luther King Jr. (Enhanced Edition)

Includes videos of King's most iconic moments.
Includes audio of his "I Have a Dream" speech and a speech against the Vietnam War.
*Includes pictures of King and other important people, places, and events in his life.

Everyone has read about history’s most important people and events in dense textbooks and classrooms, but words can only say so much. In Charles River Editors’ Interactive Biography series, history comes to life in video and audio, allowing people to experience history through the eyes and ears of the people who were there.

Today, a man born Michael King Jr. is one of the most famous Americans in history, his name having been changed at the age of 5 to one the world fondly remembers: Martin Luther King Jr. The life and legend of Dr. King have been told to every American, many of whom come away equating King with the Civil Rights Movement as a whole. But King’s life was about far more than leading movements and having dreams.

An Interactive Biography of Martin Luther King Jr. humanizes the leader who constantly sought to better himself and desperately wanted to follow in the footsteps of the man he was named after, while also celebrating his incredible accomplishments and analyzing his perceived shortcomings. Along the way, you will learn things about Dr. King you never knew, including a bitterly contested court case over some of his papers and the off-the-cuff origins of his I Have a Dream speech.

Learn about Dr. King like you never have before.
