	Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Papers Project: Encyclopedia
		King was first introduced to nonviolence as a freshman at Morehouse College in 1944, when he read Henry David Thoreau's Essay on Civil Disobedience for the first time.
		King continued to explore nonviolence while attending Crozer Theological Seminary, but was unable to see how nonviolence and love could work in mediating social conflict.
		King was so inspired by what he heard that he bought a half-dozen books on Gandhi's life and works.

	Gates of Vienna: King of America?
		The English word "king" is derived from the Old English cyning, which in turn is derived from the Germanic stem cyn, meaning "kind" or "people", and cognate with the word "kin", the German könig, and the Latin gens (this last is related to "generate" and "gentile").
		The first king of England is considered to be Alfred the Great, during whose ninth-century reign the Anglo-Saxon regions of England united for the first time, in defense against the Danes.
		However, in America, the culture of the English was mixed and merged with another one, that of the Celts.

		King of America was MacManus's first album without the Attractions since his debut (they appear on only one track, "Suit of Lights").
		Rykodisc unearthed King of America almost a decade later, and Rhino is reviving it two decades later as the final installment in its ambitious and generous reissue project.
		King of America may not have sounded like anything else Costello had done before, but it bears a striking, even disheartening, semblance to almost everything he's done since.

	Don King: Only in America (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Decades before there was rap music, King gave us a "Rumble in the Jungle" and a "Thrilla in Manila." More importantly, he took boxing out of the arena of sports and made it high drama, or at least good theater.
		Only in America is filled with such vignettes, interspersed with diatribes from King (Rhames) himself, standing in a boxing ring, often in front of blown-up clippings of his exploits, explaining or rationalizing acts which were often dubious, always audacious.
		King was famous for insisting that a boxing match had to have more than a couple of fighters.

	America Must Reclaim King from Soundbite Purgatory
		The King that electrified the Washington Mall in 1963 and caused J. Edgar Hoover to consider him "The most dangerous Negro in America," has now morphed into milquetoast, joining the ranks of Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, and Jimi Hendrix as celebrities that posthumously earn as much, if not more money, than when they were alive.
		King was unwilling to give up on an America that was all too willing to give up on itself, seeking a false refuge in the cesspool of racism, bigotry, and second-class citizenship.
		University of Pennsylvania professor Michael Eric Dyson describes it as the shift in King's approach from the nonviolent passive resistance of the Montgomery bus boycott to the "aggressive nonviolence" of the Poor People's Campaign, from the nonviolent persuasion of the March on Washington to the nonviolent coercion of mass civil disobedience.

		They’d state that King achieved his wealth through methods that were less overtly criminal than those from his youth but that he remained the same sleazy thief he always was.
		One can’t deny that King is a remarkable man, a person who pulled himself to the top of his chosen field largely via sheer force of personality.
		America moves at a very peppy pace, which becomes both a blessing and a curse.

	The Martin Luther King Jr. America has ignored \| csmonitor.com
		The politics King espoused toward the end of his life - and the part that America has effectively ignored - may provide some invaluable lessons, given the current international climate.
		King became a vocal critic of US foreign policy, denouncing America's "giant triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism," and calling the US "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today." Across the globe, from Vietnam to Asia to Latin America, King believed the US was "on the wrong side of a world revolution."
		In light of current events, King would remind us that people everywhere - regardless of religion, nationality, or creed - are united in "a single garment of destiny" and that no nation should act unilaterally.

		When King arrived in Los Angeles with his "advisor" Bayard Rustin, as the flames of four days of insurrection were dying down, King blamed the riots on police brutality.
		The Reverend King says that he did not accept Marxist views on religion, but it is obvious that he did accept the basic fundamental tenet of Communism-the class war.

	C. Richard King / Postcolonial America
		Advancing multiple, even conflicted visions of postcolonial America, this volume interrogates postcolonial theory, traces the emergence and significance of postcolonial practices and precepts in the United States, and details the manner in which the uneven relations central to the crystallization of postcoloniality have informed and changed American identities and institutions.
		Candidly facing the inherent contradictions of "the American experience," this collection demonstrates the patterns, connections, and histories characteristic of postcoloniality in America and initiates important discussions about how these conditions might be changed.
		Richard King, an assistant professor of anthropology in the Department of Sociology at Drake University, is the author of Colonial Discourses, Collective Memories, and the Exhibition of Native American Cultures and Histories in the Contemporary United States.

	Powell's Books - The King of America by Samantha Gillison
		The King of America traces the short, brilliant life of Stephen Hesse, firstborn son of one of America’s wealthiest, most powerful men—yet Stephen’s distinguished paternal lineage and the great privilege it has conferred on him are at odds with the working-class background of his mother.
		Part love story, part adventure yarn, part family tragedy, The King of America is an exceptional feat of storytelling.
		An engrossing meditation on privilege and its discontents, The King of America is a magnificent achievement."

	Book Review: King Arthur in America
		Although their theme is fairly specific, they cast a wide net -- chronologically from as early as 1807 through fantasy novels of the 1990s; and from such canonically blessed authors as Faulkner and Fitzgerald to popular literature and culture of both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
		The idea of Camelot as ideal society is more important than the figure of the King, and more in keeping with the "American Dream." The Knights of the Round Table, who had to earn their place by doing perilous deeds and protecting the weak, can be turned into a meritocracy with little effort.
		King Arthur and John Steinbeck might not have been an obvious combination to many readers before the posthumous publication of his The Acts of King Arthur and His Noble Knights.

		Fortunately for America and the world, Dr. King was drafted into service to his country by a call from his conscience -- and to him, his duty was clear.
		Americans from all types of divergent backgrounds began to recognize that America was on a road to ruin and that this lone voice of reason was rising above the din of rhetoric of hatred and segregation.

		Kuehnelt-Leddihn wrote the relationship between a monarch and his citizens is much like that between fathers and children, and Hoppe has made persuasive arguments that since kings in a sense "own" the country, they’ll take better long-term care of it than a democracy, which invariably looks no further than the next election.
		He has this to say about monarchs: "...a king, because he ‘owns’ the monopoly [the country] and may sell or bequeath it, will care about the repercussions of his actions on capital values.
		Unfortunately, democracy is the worst form of government there is. All you have to do is look at the one hundred million to two hundred million people were sacrificed in the that "Age of Democracy" known as the 20th century.

		"King of America" stands as the crown jewel in Costello's late 80's output.
		With the exception of the slippery jam session of "Eisenhower Blues," the 15 songs on "King Of America" are as flawless a whole album as anything from his early years and his most successful collaboration with a producer, in this case, T-Bone Burnett, save Burt Bacharach.

	Costello's 'King' Receives Rhino Revamp
		March 22, 2005, 11:20 AM ET Barry A. Jeckell, N.Y. "King of America," the 1986 album that saw Elvis Costello ditch the Attractions and turn introspective and even rootsy, is the latest of the artist's catalog titles lined up for reissue via Rhino.
		While the recordings of "They'll Never Take Her Love From Me" and "The People's Limousine" by the aforementioned Coward Brothers, which consisted of Costello and Burnett, were included on Ryko's version of "King of America," they are still a necessary inclusion relating to this period of Costello's career.
		During a QandA session at last week's South By Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas, Costello insisted that reissuing his catalog again is not a ploy to confuse or milk the cash of his diehard fans.
