  • Origins And Abolition In The Black Church By Marilyn Mellows

    344 Words  | 2 Pages

    After reading all the passages contained in “The Black Church” by Marilyn Mellows I quickly decided to write about “Origins and Abolition”. Perhaps, it was the fact that each of the aforementioned passages included historical references to Philadelphia. I am always interested in the role that Philadelphia played in shaping the course of African American history. These passages illuminate the individuals that charted new paths as slaves persevered and fought defiantly as they marched towards freedom. Origins, is a brief but succinct description that outlines the plight of Africans that departed their kingdoms on the coastline of Congo and arrived in Jamestown, Virginia as slaves.

  • Fahrenheit 451 Week 1 Review

    What has been enlightening to me over my studies, and was again seen in this month’s reading, was just how many issues the church has overcome. Since the very beginning of the church there has been persecution, division and confusion as to just who Jesus was and what his teaching really meant. The persecutions seemed to start because these Christians did not want to participate in the cultic and warring practices of the Roman Empire. Christians were looked at as strange for avoiding the public bathhouses and they gathered in secret. It seems eerily similar to what Christians in the East have to do today to stay alive.

    The Dorr’s rebellion was led by lawyer and activist Thomas Dorr, who held a convention and drafted a constitution, which was then submitted to popular vote. Although, the rebellion quickly failed, it helped to draft a new constitution that expanded the suffrage, instead of just small groups of landowners being able to vote. However, this didn’t truly live up to its characterization either because the voting rights were only guaranteed to white male citizens. The women and the slaves were still secluded from the reform, thus it wasn’t truly for the “common man”. Another reform movement that arose during this era was the birth of the Whigs.

    Although America was haunted by war and conflict during its first hundred years as a free nation, there are many events that I will consider to be impressive that helped shape our country little by little.

  • African American Religion In The 19th Century

    497 Words  | 2 Pages

    The collection of documents brought together in this project begins to tell the story of the growth of Protestant religion among African Americans during the nineteenth century, and of the birth of what came to be known as the "Black Church" in the United States. This development continues to have enormous political, spiritual, and economic consequences. But perhaps what is most apparent in these texts is the diversity of ways in which that religious tradition was envisioned, experienced, and implemented. From the white Baptist and Methodist missionaries sent to convert enslaved Africans, to the earliest pioneers of the independent black denominations, to black missionaries in Africa, to the eloquent rhetoric of W.E.B. DuBois, the story of the black church is a tale of variety and struggle

  • Essay On Abolitionism And Women's Rights Movement

    713 Words  | 3 Pages

    In the wake of the second Great Awakening in the early 1800’s, societal morals regarding slavery, lack of rights for women, the prison system, education, and other institutions were questioned. Unitarianism stressed salvation through good works, and both religious converts and transcendentalists initiated social reform movements in an attempt to improve the moral state of America. Two of these movements that included perhaps the most controversy and struggle included abolitionism and women’s rights. Although both the abolitionist and women’s rights movements were able to eventually create lasting societal and political change, the fact that only a small portion of the population had any democratic rights showed the initial weaknesses of American democracy.
