Notes From Your Bookseller
A rejoicing and authoritative 400-year history of the centrality of Christian faith, the community of Black churches in the creation and the shaping of culture and community for Black Americans. Gates shows us the resilience and power of the institution, its' deep-rooted, wide legacy and indelible influence. Without a full acknowledgment of this story, there is no full recounting of America’s history. Woven throughout is Gate’s personal story, the evolution of African American art forms, the artistic and aesthetic expressions given life, and the evolution of protest, dissent and witness.
The instant New York Times bestseller and companion book to the PBS series.
