Download or read book Embracing Protestantism written by John W. Catron and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Embracing Protestantism, John Catron argues that people of African descent in America who adopted Protestant Christianity during the eighteenth century did not become African Americans but instead assumed more fluid Atlantic-African identities. America was then the land of slavery and white supremacy, where citizenship and economic mobility were off-limits to most people of color. In contrast, the Atlantic World offered access to the growing abolitionist movement in Europe. Catron examines how the wider Atlantic World allowed membership in transatlantic evangelical churches that gave people of color unprecedented power in their local congregations and contact with black Christians in West and Central Africa. It also channeled inspiration from the large black churches then developing in the Caribbean and from black missionaries. Unlike deracinated creoles who attempted to merge with white culture, people of color who became Protestants were "Atlantic Africans," who used multiple religious traditions to restore cultural and ethnic connections. And this religious heterogeneity was a critically important way black Anglophone Christians resisted slavery.

Download or read book Foul Means written by Anthony S. Parent Jr. and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging the generally accepted belief that the introduction of racial slavery to America was an unplanned consequence of a scarce labor market, Anthony Parent, Jr., contends that during a brief period spanning the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries a small but powerful planter class, acting to further its emerging economic interests, intentionally brought racial slavery to Virginia. Parent bases his argument on three historical developments: the expropriation of Powhatan lands, the switch from indentured to slave labor, and the burgeoning tobacco trade. He argues that these were the result of calculated moves on the part of an emerging great planter class seeking to consolidate power through large landholdings and the labor to make them productive. To preserve their economic and social gains, this planter class inscribed racial slavery into law. The ensuing racial and class tensions led elite planters to mythologize their position as gentlemen of pastoral virtue immune to competition and corruption. To further this benevolent image, they implemented a plan to Christianize slaves and thereby render them submissive. According to Parent, by the 1720s the Virginia gentry projected a distinctive cultural ethos that buffered them from their uncertain hold on authority, threatened both by rising imperial control and by black resistance, which exploded in the Chesapeake Rebellion of 1730.

Download or read book The Black Ten Commandments written by Tony Caligula Mre and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After conducting over 20 years of research, Army Captain Tony Caligula applies military principles to reducing pathology in the Black community and to facilitate Black Americans "Crossing the Jordan" into the "Promised Land" Dr. King alluded to. However, there are 10 reasons why Tony Caligula's military-oriented approach is superior to the traditional civil rights movement: 10. There is no "Whites versus blacks" outlook. Whites are neither the enemies nor saviors. 9. The Economic Independence movement Caligula advocates for the 21st century is based on a fresh, new approach based on the philosophies of Booker T. Washington instead of the petitionary doctrines of Frederick Douglass employed during the obsolete civil rights movement of yesteryear. 8. Caligula's national warning order is not grievance-based. 7. Caligula's national warning order is not based on victimization. 6. Caligula's national warning order focuses on the dissemination of a national plan, not the ranting of some charismatic autocrat (This feature is what makes my national warning order plan "assassination-proof"). 5. Caligula's national warning order advocates self-help for low income black Americans, but has universal application (can be adapted to any culture). 4. Unlike others in this genre, the national warning order places the onus on the black community where it belongs, not some ambiguous outside forces (a tendency that is called "self-serving bias"). 3. Unlike all civil rights movement strategies, Caligula's plan is based on the Warning Order format used to achieve objectives in military operations. 2. Caligula's based his national warning order on battle-tested, proven military principles. 1. The entire plan is concise, easy-to-remember ten steps. Tony Caligula is an African American conventionalist, Independent, and social capitalist. A Distinguished Graduated of the Officer Candidate School, with over 19 years of Army service and five overseas

This book was released on 1842 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE preparation of the following pages has been undertaken at the suggestion of friends, seconded by the convictions of my own mind, that a small volume on the Religious Instruction of the Negroes in the United States would not be an unacceptable offering to the Public, and especially the Christian Public, at the present time. Whatever I have before prepared or published on the subject has been freely used, whenever it has suited my purpose, in the present composition. I have endeavored to confine myself to the Religious Instruction of the Negroes, and have touched upon other subjects only when it has been necessary for the illustration or support of the one before me. I commend the Book to the candid consideration of those who read it. My design has been to speak the truth plainly and in love, and to do good. May the blessing of Almighty God attend the effort.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to C. Eric Lincoln, the turbulent decade of the Sixties witnessed the death of the Negro Church. In its place, the offspring of the conflict between "conscienceless power" and "powerless conscience," is the Black Church. No longer the dependent bastion of Black prudence, Black institutional religion -- whether traditional, pentecostal, or Muslim -- has assumed a new role of leadership in its centuries-old quest for social and spiritual justice in America.
