Book excerpt: The History of the Black Church in America from the 1600s to the Present: A Curriculum Course For Students at Spelman College is an academic course that seeks to further the student's appreciation for the Black Church. Appreciation as understanding is vital to both the teaching and the learning process; therefore, each person's ability to appreciate and/or learn is distinctive, i.e., the individual is unique, and therefore, each person's ability to appreciate and/or understand should be measured/or assessed as such. Quite often there exists a defiance among some students of required courses in religious studies. Some don't see the connection or the relevance with religious studies as they pursue their intended careers. With such existing attitudes, it is the opportunity and the privilege of the professor to explore innovative methods, techniques, and exercises - e.g., guest lecturers, DVD viewings, travels to religious sites, creation of religions (group), or whatever the professor deems appropriate to ensure the student's opportunity to fulfill the goals and the objectives as set forth by the professor. Institutions of higher learning called historically black colleges and universities, or HBCUs, exist as institutions that seek to celebrate life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. HBCUs exist as beacons of light, filled with prepared women and men who have accepted and acknowledged the "call" and the challenge to further serve humankind as teachers-role models, demonstrating excellence. "To whom much is given, much is required" (Luke 12:48).

This book was released on 2008-08-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconstructs the history of black women’s participation in western settlement “A stellar collection of essays by talented authors who explore fascinating topics.”—Journal of American Ethnic History African American Women Confront the West, 1600–2000 is the first major historical anthology on the topic. The editors argue that African American women in the West played active, though sometimes unacknowledged, roles in shaping the political, ideological, and social currents that have influenced the United States over the past three centuries. Contributors to this volume explore African American women’s life experiences in the West, their influences on the experiences of the region’s diverse peoples, and their legacy in rural and urban communities from Montana to Texas and from California to Kansas. The essayists explore what it has meant to be an African American woman, from the era of Spanish colonial rule in eighteenth-century New Mexico to the black power era of the 1960s and 1970s.

Download or read book Redeeming the South written by Paul Harvey and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Together, and separately, black and white Baptists created different but intertwined cultures that profoundly shaped the South. Adopting a biracial and bicultural focus, Paul Harvey works to redefine southern religious history, and by extension southern culture, as the product of such interaction--the result of whites and blacks having drawn from and influenced each other even while remaining separate and distinct. Harvey explores the parallels and divergences of black and white religious institutions as manifested through differences in worship styles, sacred music, and political agendas. He examines the relationship of broad social phenomena like progressivism and modernization to the development of southern religion, focusing on the clash between rural southern folk religious expression and models of spirituality drawn from northern Victorian standards. In tracing the growth of Baptist churches from small outposts of radically democratic plain-folk religion in the mid-eighteenth century to conservative and culturally dominant institutions in the twentieth century, Harvey explores one of the most impressive evolutions of American religious and cultural history.
