This book takes a look at the emergence of African American Christianity in America from 1619 - 1860. An initial objective of this text is the exploration of the strategies white church people devised to accommodate Jesus' mandate to teach the gospel to the entire world, while preserving structures of social relationships that accommodated their dominance and power.
