Title: Ring out freedom!
Description: Fredrik Sunnemark shows how materialistic, idealistic, and religious ways of explaining the world coexisted in Martin Luther King, Jr.'s speeches and writings. He points out the roles of God, Jesus, the church, and "the beloved community" in King's rhetoric. The book closes with an analysis of King's development after 1965, examining the roots, content, and consequences of his so-called radicalization.--[book cover].
