“In the first book-length study of its kind, Daniel Fleming has added significantly to our understanding of the King holiday and debates around it. Through extensive archival research, Living the Dream offers an intriguing vantage point for exploring the racial views and policies of the Reagan, Bush, and Clinton administrations.” —Renee Romano, author of Racial Reckoning: Prosecuting America’s Civil Rights Murders
“First rate. This book will not only make a significant contribution to the growing body of King scholarship, but it will be welcomed by people interested in American history generally, as well as African American history, the civil rights movement, American political development, and public policy specifically.” —Justin Rose, author of The Drum Major Instinct: Martin Luther King Jr.’s Theory of Political Service
