(MLK Sr. was quite a bit more conservative on every axis than his son and a lot of modern-day conservatives who try to argue the "MLK was a Republican" thing are just projecting his father's beliefs onto him, possibly because MLK Jr. avoided directly antagonizing his father)

I don't think we can put Black Protestants in the same dialogue with Mainline (white) Protestants. It's a bit like asking Catholics and Orthodox Christian's how they understand something -- same family, wildly different experiences, teachings, and traditions of interpretation.
