Greeting’s everyone, we’re thrilled to present this week highly acclaimed public intellectual and best-selling author Michael Eric Dyson and his 16th book “April 4, 1968.”
As of April 4, 2008, Dr. Martin Luther King has been dead longer than he lived, but his legacy has only

grown stronger. On the fortieth anniversary of his death, Michael Eric Dyson reevaluates the fate of Black America over the four decades, investigating the many ways African-Americans have made it to the Promised Land of which King spoke, while shining a bright light on the ways in which the nation has faltered in the quest for racial justice. Dyson also probes the virtues and flaws of charismatic black leadership that has followed in King’s wake, from Jesse Jackson to Barack Obama in this celebration of the prophetic leadership of Dr. King, and challenges America to renew its commitment to his deeply moral vision. – BlackExpression.com
