Preserving the legacy of one of the twentieth century's most influential advocates for peace and justice, The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr., is described by one historian as being the "equivalent to a conversation" with King. To Save the Soul of America, the seventh volume of the anticipated fourteen-volume edition, provides an unprecedented glimpse into King's early relationship with President John F. Kennedy and his efforts to remain relevant in a protest movement growing increasingly massive and militant. Following Kennedy's inauguration in January 1961, King's high expectations for the new administration gave way to disappointment as the president hesitated to commit to comprehensive civil rights legislation. As the initial Freedom Ride catapulted King into the national spotlight in May, tensions with student activists affiliated with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) were exacerbated after King refused to participate in subsequent freedom rides. These tensions became more evident after King accepted an invitation in December 1961 to help the SNCC-supported Albany Movement in southwest Georgia. King's arrests in Albany prompted widespread national press coverage for the protests there, but he left with minimal tangible gains. During 1962 King worked diligently to improve the effectiveness of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) by hiring new staff and initiating grassroots outreach. King also increased his influence by undertaking an overcrowded schedule of appearances, teaching a course at Morehouse College, and participating in an additional round of protests in Albany during July 1962. As King confronted these difficult challenges, he learned valuable lessons that would later impact his efforts to desegregate Birmingham, Alabama, in 1963.Binding Type: Hardcover

Keep On Hand - Smells Wonderful
I just spent several days removing a large, deep poison ivy patch in a side yard. Quite exhausting but made much safer and easier with this lovely smelling, high quality soap. I did not have ANY skin irritation whatsoever even though I am extremely allergic to Urushiol oil. I did use lots of protective covering and immediately sprayed down with white vinegar first. Then washed up with this very lovely smelling and effective soap. Leaves my skin soft. Would not be without it. Great price. Generous size. Will last a long time stored in its box. Great protective if you wash within 12 hours.

Loved this fresh smelling natural soap for poison ivy rash
I was pleasantly surprised how wonderful & effective this soap is. First of all it smells amazingly fresh and clean. It is soothing on poison ivy rash, it eases the itch, it rinses squeaky clean helping to remove the poison ivy residual oil, and yet it leaves skin soft and smooth. It is also a creamy off white color and not the ugly green brown color pictured in description. I do recommend this high quality natural soap, it is a generous size and a good value, and works well. I loved it!

IT WORKS GREAT for Poison Oak & Poison Sumac
Fantastic soap for my extreme case of Poison Oak & Poison Sumac all over my arms and legs! It helps with the horrible itching. I use it every time I wash my hands to keep the contamination under control. It smells good also. I would highly recommend it! Note: I am also using prescription steroid cream and Ivarest Poison Oak & Poison Sumac wiping pads (also works).

Helps with the itch.
It seems that nothing helps with the itch from an encounter with poison ivy. This product was very good for the itching, it helped me for several hours after my cool shower each day. I would buy this again if the need should arise.

I would never be with out this and calamine lotion!
Good stuff. Try to use it as soon as possible after contact with poison plants. I keep using it until the rash subsides. Leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing. My yard has a lot of poison ivy, so I make sure I always have it on hand.
