Produced by Judith Boss, John Hamm and David Widger "The Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, 1995, Memorial Issue" by Various is a collection of historical writings and speeches compiled to commemorate Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights movement. The works within span a significant period, capturing voices from the 19th century up to civil rights discussions of the late 20th century. This compilation serves to reflect on the historical struggles for African-American rights, the narratives of influential figures like Sojourner Truth and Frederick Douglass, and the ongoing dialogue about racial equality. At the start of this memorial issue, the text opens with Harriet Beecher Stowe's account of Sojourner Truth, presenting her as a formidable speaker and a symbol of strength and resilience against slavery. The narrative captures her first interaction with Stowe, revealing her indomitable spirit and calling for justice. Truth recounts memories of her youth in bondage, sharing tales infused with anguish and faith, ultimately illustrating her transformative encounter with God and her purpose as an advocate for freedom. The opening portion not only establishes Truth's character and mission but also sets the tone for the subsequent writings, reinforcing themes of struggle, hope, and the quest for equality.
