For the faithful, kutafuta (seeking) is a way of life. ”16 Cleage believed that no amount of rational knowledge about the nature and dynamics of the world system is sufficient to effectively change it. A truly effective agent of divine will has to experience the energy and power of God before he/she was capable of total commitment to God, which he regarded as the requirement for membership in the Transforming Community. Cleage’s idea of a church dedicated to personal and social transformation required people who embodied that transformation, people who were incarnations of a God experience.
13 In Chap. 4, Stephen Finley offers a textual analysis of Albert Cleage’s understanding and explication of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. He argues Cleage is the first to present these two iconic figures as complementary and not oppositional. Cleage’s was a radical interpretation, grounded in pragmatic realism, and remains relevant for African American religious thought. Finley also argues that Cleage continues to be a critical and constructive voice that can offer relevant insights to the Black Lives Matter Movement and other social justice movements today, particularly as it relates to the viability of marching.
K. NELSON the black church could be an instrument of healing and restoration. He followed that belief all of his life. It led to some unique and unexpected revelations that lay the foundations for an ongoing ministry of black transformation, unification, and empowerment in his PAOCC. Cleage rose to national prominence in a time of rising expectations and social upheaval. Seeking to seize the time, he wrote two books that captured the zeitgeist and built a national church organization. But as times changed, his ministry had to adapt.
