Only in Darkness can You See the Stars Martin Luther King Jr

He called his India visit a pilgrimage The American Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King Jr spent one long month in India, calling it the land that demonstrated the efficacy of Non-violence as a successful tool of resistance against bondage, injustice and the power of the gun. Gandhi was the worlds guru who showed the way, leading the common man into contributing in a struggle out of colonialism. He made Civil Disobedience a household word. Martin Luther King Jr gave Civil Liberties a new meaning, ending apartheid in the USA, at a time when it became the worlds strongest nation. In the last 50 years, there has been no more powerful voice against war in the world, it is still Martin Luther Kings stand against Americas war on Vietnam that shines as an example against military might. He is the voice of Americas conscience, still reverberating. Only in Darkness Can You See The Stars is an MLK biography reminding a young India that looks askance at non-violence, what a struggle America waged to give itself equal rights, including sitting rights and voting rights, not so long ago. Kings life is an example of what is doable at the time of utter darkness. That what Gautama Buddha taught India nearly 3,000 years ago still holds good. At the end of Darkness is Light.
