MLK had a deep faith that truth and justice would one day triumph in the nation he loved. In his speeches and sermons he would sometimes quote Thomas Carlisle in saying “No lie can live forever” or William Cullen Bryant’s assurance that “Truth crushed to earth will rise again.” This book brings us a step closer to the day when the truth about his assassination is revealed and justice will prevail.

THE EXPLOSIVE NEW EXPOSE THAT WILL REWRITE AMERICAN HISTORY!
Evidence of previous botch assassination plots.
Positive identification of the mysterious Raul who set up James Earl Ray as a patsy.
Who really killed MLK and why?
Here for the first time William F. Pepper reveals the whole truth about the Martin Luther King, Jr., assassination. In 1978, at the urging of longtime civil rights leader Ralph Abernathy, William F. Pepper interviewed James Earl Ray at Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary. What he heard then and discovered in succeeding years so convinced him of Ray’s innocence that eventually he became James Earl Ray’s lawyer and continued a twenty-year investigation into the crime. Now Pepper’s revelations, based on extensive research and never-before-revealed evidence and interviews, solve the haunting mystery surrounding James Earl Ray’s real role in the killing and expose a ruthless conspiracy wrought by hate and power that will shame—and shock—all Americans. Material evidence contained in federal government files pertaining to the case continued to be sealed and unavailable to the defense. There was always an official double standard that had long hindered his case, but the author's meticulous decades long search for answers brings this case to life.
Those in charge of the United States intelligence, military, and law enforcement machinery understood King’s true significance. They perceived his active opposition to the war and his organizing of the poor as grave disruptions to the stability of a society already rife with unrest, and took the position that he was under communist control.
The last year of his life was one of the most turbulent in the history of the nation. Much of the civil unrest took the form of nationwide urban riots. By July 1967, the number of riots and other serious disruptions against public order had reached ninety-three in nineteen states. In August there were an additional thirty-three riots which occurred in thirty-two cities in twenty-two states.
Dr. King was at the center of it all. His unswerving opposition to the Vietnam war and his commitment to bring hundreds of thousands of poor people to a Washington D. C. encampment in the spring of 1968 to focus Congress’s attention on the plight of the nation’s poor, turned the government’s anxiety into utter panic.
News of the acquittal at the James Earl Ray exoneration trial was reported in Britain, but was blocked in the USA.
