Martin Luther King Jr. may be America's most revered political figure, commemorated in statues, celebrations, and street names around the world. But despite his stature, the significance of King's writings and political thought remains underappreciated. In To Shape a New World, Tommie Shelby and Brandon Terry state that the marginalization of King's ideas reflects a romantic consensus history that renders the civil rights movement inherently conservative - an effort not at radical reform but at "living up to" enduring ideals laid down by the nation's founders.

Much of Dr. Kings scholarly work has been ignored and where mentioned, transmogrified into decontextualized platitudes. This book lays bay his contribution, not just to civil rights, but also to critical social theory. I highly recommend this book.
