Write a three-page response to the book Stride Toward Freedom: The Montgomery Story, by Martin Luther King, Jr. Your response should be an evaluation and analysis of the book that links it to broader themes of American history.
In your analysis, you may wish to respond to the following questions (these are optional):
What is Martin Luther King, Jr.s thesis or agenda in this book? What audience do you think he is trying to reach with this book? How does he tailor the book to this audience? How effective is his argument?
Your paper can include a short summary of the book, but most of it should be analysis rather than summary.
Your paper should be a complete essay, with an introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Please use specific evidence to support your analysis of the book.
double-spaced in 12-pt font with standard one-inch margins. Use parenthetical citations for the book and footnotes for other sources (if necessary).
