Martin, Malcolm, and Black Theology
Abstract
The prophetic and angry voices of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Malcolm X together revolutionized theological thinking in the African American community. Before Martin and Malcolm, black ministers and religious thinkers repeated the doctrines and mimicked the theologies they read and heard in white churches and seminaries, grateful to be allowed to worship God in an integrated sanctuary and to study theology with whites in a seminary classroom.
