I think that there is some misunderstanding about King. He believed in non violence. He was NOT a moderate.
He was getting more concerned about poverty as well as racism.
How he would react on issues of women's rights and gay people is hard to tell.
It would have been interesting had he taken on most of the socially liberal agenda but remained opposed to abortion- I can well see where someone could come to that view from a non violence (as distinct from fundamentalist anti woman) starting point.
