this class is an hour. >> who is martin luther king? when we look at martin luther king, there is one side of him that is a famous individual. he is the 1964 winner of the nobel peace prize. he's the person really was the most influential leader of a great social movement. he is the only american who was honored with a national holiday in his name. so there is that uniqueness that practically everybody in the world knows the name "martin luther king." but the question is that i'd like to address, right in this setting, is who really was martin luther king? because one of the advantages of using a setting like this is that we can really practice history the way it should be. it shouldn't be about names and dates that you remember, it should be about the study of the things that survive from the past. that's why a site, a historical site is so important. that is why the king papers project, when coretta scott king named me to edit his papers she understood that in the long run what would survive were the papers that martin luther king prod

this is the inner martin luther king. a lot of the other things that we think we know about him are what u would call the external martin luther king. sometimes i even call it the king myth. because when we look at it from the point of view of the person who emerged from this experience, we see that he was shaped in a way that was not fundamentally changed when he went to montgomery and rosa parks turned a social gospel preacher into a civil rights leader. and i think most of us would agree that for the next ten years he did a pretty good job as a civil rights leader. i mean, all those changes that took place from the montgomery bus boycott to the passage of the civil rights act, he could have said i didn't ask for this job, i was kind of asked to take this job of being a civil rights leader but i did a pretty good job. please let me go home and rest. i've kind of accomplished, the voting rights action is the last major piece of legislation. but if you see his life in this sweep of the direct line from the experiences that

he becomes reverend martin luther king sr. and martin luther king jr. now i'm giving you this background because i think that this helps to explain why this place is so important. why the birth home a block up the street is such an important place. this is where literally, martin luther king jr. achieves his identity. this is the place where he has his early experiences. and this is the important thing that comes through in that wonderful document, the autobiography of religious development. that is something that he writes during his first year at crozier theological seminary. to write a handwritten paper. i would love to show you it, just to see the way in which he kind of sketches out his life. he says, "i was born in 1929 on the eve of the great depression, which spread its disastrous arms throughout the nation." that is how he comes to his anti-capitalist view of the world. that's all in the first paragraph. have you ever read a document that reveals so much more than that? just from its beginning? those of you in this class understand that beginni
