Description

Explore the history of one of America's most famous Black congregations through the eyes of a preeminent scholar. In Protest and Progress, the late James Hewitt provides an illuminating history of St. Philip's, tracing its journey from humble beginnings to a center of social and religious influence. The story begins with classes conducted by Elias Neau and other Anglican clerks for the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. These catechesis classes helped form a highly educated group of African-American individuals, including both free and enslaved Black members. This community became so significant that W.E.B. Du Bois identified it as the foundation for the Talented Tenth in his classic work, Souls of Black Folk. As both a devout parishioner and a leading expert on Black Anglicans and Episcopalians, Hewitt offers a unique perspective on this institution's fight against racism and its role in American history. This book is an essential addition to any collection focused on African American history and culture.
