Book The Religious Development of the Negro in Virginia

Download or read book The Religious Development of the Negro in Virginia written by Joseph B. Earnest and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Development of the Negro in Virginia: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Virginia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree, of Doctor of Philosophy Virginia is one of the richest fields for historical research; the Negro question is one of the most pressing of our day; the religious is the most neglected phase of the great Negro problem. It could not seem strange therefore that this study should be undertaken in the face of such a challenge. It is a fact, not without significance, that of the four dissertations issued from the School of History at the University of Virginia, two have had as their subject, the Negro. To the influence of Professor R. H. Dabney, we ascribe this interest. Dr. J. P. McConnell's dissertation, "Negroes and Their Treatment in Virginia from 1865 to 1867," U. Va. 1905, is an intensive study of a strategic period in the life of the Negro, and embraces legal, political, social and religious considerations. This present dissertation, in contradistinction to his, is an intensive study of one phase of the Negro's life in Virginia - the religious - from the date of the landing in America up to the present. The effort is conscientiously made to hew to that mark. Apologists and excoriators might shout the praises of the Negro or hurl at him verbal damnation, yet Time will record the amelioration of his religious condition while in America, as one of the proudest achievements of Anglo-Saxon Missionary energies. In the South, Virginia has taken a prominent part in this transformation or spirit-worshipping savages into worshippers of one God, men and women who sometimes show characters as deeply devout and conscientious as can be found anywhere. Just what factors and influences brought this about I shall endeavor to indicate. In this study nearly a thousand letters have been sent to prominent white citizens, prominent Negro citizens and Negro preachers. The endeavor was to secure evidence from every part of the State. About seventy-five percent of these letters were carefully answered, which might be interpreted to indicate the sensitive, state of public opinion on the subject. Of course, no one could expect that 100 percent of such letters would be answered. Human nature is still human.

Book The Negro in Virginia

Download or read book The Negro in Virginia written by and published by Blair. This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slavery is as basic a part of Virginia history as George Washington, who was accompanied at Valley Forge and Yorktown by his slave William Lee, and Thomas Jefferson, who directed his slaves to cut 30 feet off a mountaintop for the site of Monticello. Slavery in the Old Dominion began in 1619, when a Spanish frigate was captured and its cargo of Negroes brought to Jamestown. Virginia Negroes experienced slavery as field laborers, as skilled craftsmen, as house servants. In 1935, the Virginia Writers' Project began collecting data for a history of Negroes in the Old Dominion through the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the Depression. Published in 1940 as "The Negro in Virginia", it was regarded as a "classic of its kind." Modern readers will be surprised at how relevant it remains today. -- From publisher's description.

  • Publisher : University Press of Kentucky
  • Release : 2017-11-17
  • ISBN : 0813174740
  • Pages : 193 pages

Download or read book Bound to the Fire written by Kelley Fanto Deetz and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, smiling images of "Aunt Jemima" and other historical and fictional black cooks could be found on various food products and in advertising. Although these images were sanitized and romanticized in American popular culture, they represented the untold stories of enslaved men and women who had a significant impact on the nation's culinary and hospitality traditions, even as they were forced to prepare food for their oppressors. Kelley Fanto Deetz draws upon archaeological evidence, cookbooks, plantation records, and folklore to present a nuanced study of the lives of enslaved plantation cooks from colonial times through emancipation and beyond. She reveals how these men and women were literally "bound to the fire" as they lived and worked in the sweltering and often fetid conditions of plantation house kitchens. These highly skilled cooks drew upon knowledge and ingredients brought with them from their African homelands to create complex, labor-intensive dishes. However, their white owners overwhelmingly received the credit for their creations. Deetz restores these forgotten figures to their rightful place in American and Southern history by uncovering their rich and intricate stories and celebrating their living legacy with the recipes that they created and passed down to future generations.

Book excerpt: The instant New York Times bestseller and companion book to the PBS series. “Absolutely brilliant . . . A necessary and moving work.” —Eddie S. Glaude, Jr., author of Begin Again “Engaging. . . . In Gates’s telling, the Black church shines bright even as the nation itself moves uncertainly through the gloaming, seeking justice on earth—as it is in heaven.” —Jon Meacham, New York Times Book Review From the New York Times bestselling author of Stony the Road and one of our most important voices on the African American experience comes a powerful new history of the Black church as a foundation of Black life and a driving force in the larger freedom struggle in America. For the young Henry Louis Gates, Jr., growing up in a small, residentially segregated West Virginia town, the church was a center of gravity—an intimate place where voices rose up in song and neighbors gathered to celebrate life's blessings and offer comfort amid its trials and tribulations. In this tender and expansive reckoning with the meaning of the Black Church in America, Gates takes us on a journey spanning more than five centuries, from the intersection of Christianity and the transatlantic slave trade to today’s political landscape. At road’s end, and after Gates’s distinctive meditation on the churches of his childhood, we emerge with a new understanding of the importance of African American religion to the larger national narrative—as a center of resistance to slavery and white supremacy, as a magnet for political mobilization, as an incubator of musical and oratorical talent that would transform the culture, and as a crucible for working through the Black community’s most critical personal and social issues. In a country that has historically afforded its citizens from the African diaspora tragically few safe spaces, the Black Church has always been more than a sanctuary. This fact was never lost on white supremacists: from the earliest days of slavery, when enslaved people were allowed to worship at all, their meetinghouses were subject to surveillance and destruction. Long after slavery’s formal eradication, church burnings and bombings by anti-Black racists continued, a hallmark of the violent effort to suppress the African American struggle for equality. The past often isn’t even past—Dylann Roof committed his slaughter in the Mother Emanuel AME Church 193 years after it was first burned down by white citizens of Charleston, South Carolina, following a thwarted slave rebellion. But as Gates brilliantly shows, the Black church has never been only one thing. Its story lies at the heart of the Black political struggle, and it has produced many of the Black community’s most notable leaders. At the same time, some churches and denominations have eschewed political engagement and exemplified practices of exclusion and intolerance that have caused polarization and pain. Those tensions remain today, as a rising generation demands freedom and dignity for all within and beyond their communities, regardless of race, sex, or gender. Still, as a source of faith and refuge, spiritual sustenance and struggle against society’s darkest forces, the Black Church has been central, as this enthralling history makes vividly clear.
