(Beacon / 0067-0 / $14.00 pb) , and The Trumpet of Conscience (Beacon / 0071-7 / $22.00 hc) . His speeches, sermons, and writings are inspirational and timeless. King was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee, on April 4, 1968. Dorothy Cotton was the education director for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and worked closely with Dr. King on teaching nonviolence and citizenship education.
