When Martin Luther King accepted his Nobel Prize, he delivered a speech that has been unfairly ignored because his delivery was so muted. Read 50 years later, it is electrifying.
—Martin Luther King’s gifts were manifest. He was an inspired leader, a galvanizing orator, and a brilliant polemicist and prose writer. But more than anything, he knew how to rise to an occasion.
Martin Luther King Jr. held his acceptance speech in the auditorium of the University of Oslo on 10 December 1964.
See a Video of the Acceptance Speech here.
Hear Martin Luther King’s inspiring 1958 speech in an Illinois synagogue some 6 years before his famous I Have A Dream Speech. Very moving. Here.
