Martin Luther King
28 août 1963, Washington : le discours de Martin Luther King qui a marqué l’histoire. Découvrez l’édition bilingue de I Have A Dream, enrichie des mots de Joséphine Baker et préfacée par Amanda Gorman.
Aujourd'hui, le climat social, marqué par l'inquiétude, les violences, le sentiment de perte de liberté, marque tous les Français. Ce court ouvrage interroge : qu'aurait dit Martin Luther King, lui qui a oeuvré, par la non-violence, à conquérir les droits civiques du peuple noir, victime de ségrégation, de violence, de dévalorisation ? On ne sait pas bien sûr, ce qu'il aurait dit, mais son époque résonne par bien des aspects avec ce que nous connaissons aujourd'hui, et ses mots, écrits lors de rencontres, de manifestations, éclairent d'une lumière étonnante et salutaire, les réalités que nous vivons. MLK en appelle à la défense des dignités et des droits, sans concession, mais sans non plus se départir d'une volonté que les peuples restent unis et avancent ensemble. Un petit ouvrage qui touche, impressionne et "réchauffe" !
