''Black Power and the American Myth'' is a 1970 book by Reverend C. T. Vivian that analyzes the Civil Rights Movement. Before writing ''Black Power and the American Myth'', Vivian had been an activist, a member of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and a member of the Executive Staff of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Vivian was the first member of King's staff to write a book about the Civil Rights Movement,〔(Civil rights strategist C.T. Vivian to probe movement’s 21st century meaning in Stetson ), Stetson University, December 27, 1999.〕 and his access gave readers a first-hand account of the thoughts and motivations of the movement's leaders. Vivian credits King with successfully shifting white Americans' perceptions of the need for equal rights for African-Americans: Vivian also describes the process through which the movement's leaders identified important goals and strategies: After its 1970 publication, ''Black Power and the American Myth'' became an ''Ebony'' Book Club selection and a bestseller.〔(Biography of C.
