literal fbi propaganda. Read if you'd like, however this book does not disclose who actually murdered Martin Luther King. His Family, disagrees with this stance displayed in the novel and even sued the government for the wrongful death of Martin Luther King. Search it up.

A book on the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. by James Earl Ray. He was a petty criminal who never managed to get away with anything and somehow he managed to assassinate a high profile target and escape to overseas. He came back voluntarily and died in prison. He always referred to a contact named Raul who I had always assumed was Raul Castro. The popular theory is that Raul was with the CIA or FBI, but rioting in America would of been more beneficial to communist Cuba than to the U.S. government.

A reasonable but incomplete look at the events surrounding the death of Dr. Martin Luther King. It does offer some ideas and evidence of note but lacks the in depth perspective necessary to reveal larger issues and official problems.
