King, Martin Luther, Jr.
Reclaiming Children and Youth, v22 n3 p59-61 Fall 2013
Three years before his Nobel Prize, Dr. King shared his vision of non violence in a televised interview published in this article for the first time in print. King and his father both began their lives given the name "Michael" King. During a 1934 trip to Nazi Germany to attned the Baptist World Alliance Conference, the elder R. King renamed himself and his six-year-old son "Martin Luther" to embrace their life mission as reformers. The senior editor of this journal was a student in South Dakota where journalist Doug Hill conducted this interview. This interview is excerpted.
