"The story of Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the most influential narratives in American and world history. Here, Dr. Marcus 'Goodie' Goodloe shares a missing and often forgotten part of that story, writing vividly and insightfully about King's efforts to intersect athletes and entertainers in the struggle for equal opportunity, justice, and peace.Kingmaker: Applying Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 's Leadership Lessons in Working with Athletes and Entertainers will inspire you to live differently while pursuing more enlightening and practical ways to do just that. Dr. Goodloe challenges us all to learn from and understand Martin Luther King Jr.'s life and legacy in new and different ways. Focusing on King's working relationships with respected figures in the athletic and entertainment industries, Goodloe extracts 'leadership lessons' from which people of all walks of life can learn. A remarkably revealing and highly provocative presentation by an emerging young King scholar, who is also committed to educating and empowering 'Kingmakers' for today and tomorrow." Lewis V. Baldwin Emeritus Professor of Religious Studies Vanderbilt University Author of The Voice of Conscience: The Church in the Mind of Martin Luther King Jr FOREWORD As one who taught the life and ministry of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to seminary students preparing for ministry, I was intrigued with the fresh word and new insights that Goodie Goodloe shares about Dr. King. Goodie writes about the Dr. King we thought we knew. Using very clear language, he introduces us to an easy reading of a book with well researched and well documented stories that makes Dr. King better known and deeper appreciated. The segregated Christians, their pastors, and the poor who marched and went to jail with Dr. King did not underwrite the high cost of freedom. Goodie explains the leadership skills of Dr. King as a fundraiser and strategist who had cultivated friendships with actors, entertainers, and athletes whose fundraising efforts kept the Civil Rights Movement alive. Teachers of leadership can inform and inspire their students by reading how Dr. Goodloe interprets the leadership genius of the peaceful warrior, author, preacher-orator, scholar and servant leader in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. You will not regret purchasing this book or more copies to give friends.
