"Disciples of Liberty: The African Methodist Episcopal Church in the Age of Imperialism, 1884-1916" with Lawrence Little
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the African Methodist Episcopal Church provided an ideological foundation for the African American community that was truly world-embracing. While generally identified with the pursuit of liberty for African Americans, the church's concerns can now be seen to have extended far beyond U.S. borders.
In this new study, Lawrence Little describes how the A.M.E. Church reacted to American foreign policy in the years from the partition of Africa in 1884 to the U.S. invasion of Haiti in 1916. By examining and analyzing church rhetoric and actions in response to imperialism and oppression, he shows how the A.M.E. Church pursued the global application of liberty and identified with oppressed peoples around the world, regardless of race.
