These two men from starkly  different worlds profoundly influenced each other's personal  development. Kennedy's hesitation on civil rights spurred King to  greater acts of courage, and King inspired Kennedy to finally make a  moral commitment to equality. As America still grapples with the legacy  of slavery and the persistence of discrimination, \u003ci\u003eKennedy and King\u003c\/i\u003e is a vital, vivid contribution to the literature of the Civil Rights Movement.","brand":"Hachette Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069742334192,"sku":"9780316267403","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780316267403_p0.jpg?v=1769916619","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780316267403","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
