"I've a fantasy." When those words were spoken on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963, the public stood, electrified, as Martin Luther Ruler, Jr. brought the plight of African Us citizens to the general public consciousness and tightly established himself as one of the greatest orators ever. Behind the Wish: The Making of the Conversation that Transformed a Country is a thrilling, behind-the-scenes account of the weeks before the fantastic event, as told by Clarence Jones, co-writer of the talk and close confidant to Ruler. Jones was there, on the highway, collaborating with the fantastic minds of the time, and hammering out the ideas and the talk that would shape the civil protection under the law movement and encourage Americans for a long time to come.
