Reviews
Vincent Harding, friend and advisor to the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Daisaku Ikeda engage in a cross-cultural dialog illuminating the historical events of the civil rights movement
This book should be required reading for every American. 40 years later, unfortunately, it still rings true.
P. 22 mentions Randolph and Rustin proposed a Freedom Budget and also in appendix.
Much more, crucial reading.
