Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther was a true son of Africa in character, dilligence, strategic approach to issues, methodologically independent and a deep thinking person. He was taken into slavery not out of his own making or voluntary acceptability but out of providence and the making of human nature. He was destined to go through the ordeal of slavery inorder for him to learn the methodology of how he would release his other brethrens still wallowing in the bondage of slavery and abject poverty. Without Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther's ordeal, efforts and strategic planning, the fire of development we now see burning across the continent of Africa today would have been long extinguished. He single handedly planted the tree of unity not only in his home country - Nigeria alone, but across the length and breadth of his beloved continent, which other people from other nations of the world had written off and labelled the dark continent. He brought oil and lamp for us to see the dangerous path that we were formerly trodding and elevated the status of a black person in the committee of world nations. His grandson Albert Macaulay was undisputably the father of politics in Nigeria while others who struggled with his grandfather in the vanguard of education, economic freedom and total destruction of slaverery in Africa also had their own place of recognition in the land of the continent.

America’s first Black bishop and his struggle to rebuild the African American presence inside the Episcopal Church In 1918, the Right Reverend Edward T. Demby took up the reins as Suffragan (assistant) Bishop for Colored Work in Arkansas and the Province of the Southwest, an area encompassing Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and New Mexico. Set within the context of a series of experiments in black leadership conducted by the Episcopal Diocese of Arkansas in the early decades of the twentieth century, Demby's tenure in a segregated ministry illuminates the larger American experience of segregation disguised as a social good. Intent on demonstrating the industry and self-reliance of black Episcopalians to the church at large, Demby set about securing black priests for the diocese, baptizing and confirming communicants, and building schools and other institutions of community service. A gifted leader and a committed Episcopalian, Demby recognized that black service institutions, such as schools, hospitals, and orphanages, would be the means to draw African Americans back to the Episcopal Church, which they had abandoned in droves after emancipation as the church of their former masters. For more than twenty years, hamstrung by white apathy, lack of funds, jurisdictional ambiguity, and the Great Depression, Demby doggedly tried to establish the credibility of a ministry that was as ill-conceived as it was well intended. Michael J. Beary skillfully narrates the shifting alliances within the Episcopal Church and shows how race was but one aspect of a more elemental struggle for power. He demonstrates how Demby's steadiness of purpose and non-confrontational manner gathered allies on both sides of the color line and how, ultimately, his judgment and the weight of his experience carried the church past its segregationist experiment.

Demby believed African American assimilation into the white Episcopal church was paved with education and moral rectitude. Thus his move toward integration and equality accommodated more than challenged the status quo. His rise to assistant Episcopal bishop for "colored work" in Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and New Mexico, provides depth to the larger American experience of segregation promulgated as a social good. Demby worked diligently to hire black priests, baptizing and confirming communicants, and building schools and other institutions of community service as a way to draw African Americans back to the Episcopal church. His ministry, writes Beary, "represents the zenith and the demise of Jim Crow in the Episcopal Church." Beary is an independent scholar, an Episcopalian, and former instructor at Lyon College.

Excerpt from The Black Bishop: Samuel Adjai Crowther I heard of his death one Sunday morning while I was in Rome, in January, 1892. I was to address Signor Capellini's band of earnest Christian Italian soldiers that evening. I put aside the subject I had chosen and told them the story of Samuel Crowther. Never, surely, had an audience been more surprised and interested. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
