Sacred Mission, Worldly Ambition: Black Christian Nationalism in the Age of Jim Crow
Adele Oltman
The study’s use of local sources in Savannah, especially behind-the-scenes church records, provides a rare glimpse into church life and ritual, depicting scenes never before described. Blending history, ethnography, and Geertzian dramaturgy, it traces the evolution of black southern society.
