Product Description

"Fighting the Good Fight" tells the story of one of the most influential African American institutions in the south, highlighting the leadership of Martin Luther King, Jr. during his pastorate and the Montgomery bus boycotts. Roberson recounts the role of the church during emancipation, Jim Crow, and the emergence of black leadership during the Civil Rights movement. Representing the only congregation that King ever led, the Dexter Avenue Church remains a symbol of not only the black community's mass protest against racial discrimination but also a unified faith in the ideal of American progress.
