Abstract:
In the colonial and antebellum South, black and white evangelicals frequently prayed, sang, and worshipped together. Even though white evangelicals claimed spiritual fellowship with those of African descent, they nonetheless emerged as defenders of race-based slavery. This book deals with the evangelical roots of the proslavery argument.
