A n n o t a t e d B i b l i o g r a p h y P a g e | 2 I will be looking into the work & history of Martin Luther King, Jr. Guth, K. V. (2020). LAYING CLAIM TO MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. AND THE CIVIL RIGHTS LEGACY: An Ethical Assessment of Social Gospel Historiography.  Journal of Religious Ethics 48 (1), 26–44. https://lopes.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx? direct=true&db=rfh&AN=ATLAiAZI200229001081&site=eds- live&scope=site&custid=s8333196&groupid=main&profile=eds1 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr’s impact and his legacy on the Civil Rights movement was the focus of this article. Of course, he is celebrated by all of his colleagues in the Civil Rights world, as well as scholars who are coming up in higher learning. This article also details in full how Civil Rights leaders after Dr. King carried on his legacy and did what it took to make sure the future is bright for children of color.

(Miriam Y. (2019). The Praxis of Prophetic Voice: Martin Luther King, Jr. and Strategies for Resistance.  Black Theology 17 (3), 241–257. https://doi- org.lopes.idm.oclc.org/10.1080/14769948.2019.1688089 https://lopes.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx? direct=true&db=rfh&AN=ATLAi5IE191209000821&site=eds- live&scope=site&custid=s8333196&groupid=main&profile=eds1 One big issue of this article was how Dr. King advocated for non-violent protest when white supremacy and violence from the Ku Klux Klan was becoming a life-threating problem for African Americans of all ages, as the KKK was also targeting children in their attacks. This non- violent protest came into play when Malcolm X was declaring that African Americans must defend themselves, violently, if needed. This of course, contradicted the belief of the Christian belief of turning the other cheek. This is a trusted source from Taylor & Francis.

A n n o t a t e d B i b l i o g r a p h y P a g e | 3 Guth, K. V. (2012). Reconstructing nonviolence: the political theology of Martin Luther King Jr. after feminism and womanism.  Journal of the Society of Christian Ethics 32 (1), 75–92. https://lopes.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx? direct=true&db=rfh&AN=ATLA0001902296&site=eds- live&scope=site&custid=s8333196&groupid=main&profile=eds1 This was a great article by Mrs. Guth in that it went for the feminist view of Martin Luther King’s philosophy of non-violence when countering the racism of white supremacy in the South. Granted, it was tough to not fight white supremacy as sexual assault was rising against African American women. The key was to get the law firmly on the side of African Americans on this issue.

Martin Luther King, Jr., youth, and the beloved community.  Encounter 70 (3), 1–21. https://lopes.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx? direct=true&db=rfh&AN=ATLA0001755515&site=eds- live&scope=site&custid=s8333196&groupid=main&profile=eds1 Burrow’s article was great in that it looked into how it was imperative for the Civil Rights movement that Dr. King started was crucial for letting the future of African Americans, the children, to grow up in a world that they could trust the system in advocating for their growth and lives. It was Dr. King’s mission to shield the children from segregation, denial of voting rights, lynchings, and racism in the future. This mission was a great mission as life in the Mississippi Delta, Selma, and Alabama were a cesspool of racism and human indignity.

A n n o t a t e d B i b l i o g r a p h y P a g e | 4 Commins, G. (2007). Is suffering redemptive?: Historical and theological reflections on Martin Luther King Jr.  Sewanee Theological Review 51 (1), 61–80. https://lopes.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx? direct=true&db=rfh&AN=ATLA0001645725&site=eds- live&scope=site&custid=s8333196&groupid=main&profile=eds1 In Commins’ article, the spirituality of Martin Luther King’s Civil Rights movement was looked into. The biggest argument in this study was whether suffering is a way of redemption for your soul and a stairway to heaven. It was always told in the Bible that suffering will lead to cleansing of the soul. Of course, African Americans have been suffering since the first slaves arrived in Jamestown in 1619.
