520 |a This essay assesses the oft-made link between Walter Rauschenbusch and Martin Luther King Jr. Denying neither Rauschenbusch's influence on King nor King's social gospel status, it nevertheless questions the way historians locate Rauschenbusch's legacy in King and the civil rights movement. This strategy, however unintentionally, reproduces the white social gospel's "astigmatism" on race and undermines the contributions of black social gospel (and other neglected) leaders even as revised histories affirm them. After exploring King's references to Rauschenbusch and Rauschenbusch's reflections on race, the paper compares their theologies. This comparison reveals key differences on race and economic justice that ramify across Rauschenbusch's and King's distinctive articulations of social gospel categories, further complicating historians' claims on King. Oversimplifying the connection between these important figures in religious ethics distorts theological understanding of social gospel legacies and compromises their power for future generations.
