Win Martin Luther King's Why We Can't Wait

The 1964 book has been republished to mark the anniversary of his death

50 years after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr and America is still divided.

In this week’s Big Issue, Stuart Cosgrove finds King’s legacy is fuelling a renewed fight against injustice. Taran Burke, who’s behind the hashtag MeToo, is dismayed it’s dividing women along racial line rather than uniting them. And Memphis street paper vendor Antonio Harris says he wants to do great things – just like his hero MLK.

King’s 1964 book documents the history of the civil rights struggle. Specially reissued to mark the anniversary of his death, we’re giving away five copies. To be in with the chance of winning one of five copies simply answer the question below.
