A documentarry novel of the 1960s when Martin Luther King went Up The Mountain. There was a surreal feel to the encounter between black and white on the sidelines of history, and the nightmarish outcome to a decade that somehow had gone very wrong.
The 1960s climaxed in the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. before he could march on Washington in the Poor People's Campaign of 1968. These years were not just about Woodstock, drugs, and sexual liberation--they were also about work, Civil Rights, the Ecumenical Council, and the Great Society. Kennedy, King, and Malcolm X went down to their deaths--and a lot of good people on the streets who were not taking drugs, but who were working for Civil Rights, in the anti-war movement, or were just trying to walk their ideals--went down too.
