University professor, church pastor, and civil rights activist L.H. Whelchel presents The History and Heritage of African American Churches: A Way Out of No Way, a scholarly examination of how Africa affected the early Christian Church, and how African-African Christians labored to create and perpetuate their church’s own religious traditions. Focus is especially bestowed on the role certain African-African churches and their ministers played in crucial events in American history. The History and Heritage of African American Churches is highly recommended especially for public and college library collections.
