Twenty-five years after its original publication, Slave Religion remains a classic in the study of African American history and religion. In a new chapter in this anniversary edition, author Albert J. Raboteau reflects upon the origins of the book, the reactions to it over the past twenty-five years, and how he would write it differently today. Using a variety of first and second-hand sources-- some objective, some personal, all riveting-- Raboteau analyzes the transformation of the African religions into evangelical Christianity. He presents the narratives of the slaves themselves, as well as missionary reports, travel accounts, folklore, black autobiographies, and the journals of white observers to describe the day-to-day religious life in the slave communities. Slave Religion is a must-read for anyone wanting a full picture of this "invisible institution."

Could slaves become Christian? If so, did their conversion lead to freedom? If not, then how could perpetual enslavement be justified? In Christian Slavery, Katharine Gerbner contends that religion was fundamental to the development of both slavery and race in the Protestant Atlantic world. Slave owners in the Caribbean and elsewhere established governments and legal codes based on an ideology of "Protestant Supremacy," which excluded the majority of enslaved men and women from Christian communities. For slaveholders, Christianity was a sign of freedom, and most believed that slaves should not be eligible for conversion. When Protestant missionaries arrived in the plantation colonies intending to convert enslaved Africans to Christianity in the 1670s, they were appalled that most slave owners rejected the prospect of slave conversion. Slaveholders regularly attacked missionaries, both verbally and physically, and blamed the evangelizing newcomers for slave rebellions. In response, Quaker, Anglican, and Moravian missionaries articulated a vision of "Christian Slavery," arguing that Christianity would make slaves hardworking and loyal. Over time, missionaries increasingly used the language of race to support their arguments for slave conversion. Enslaved Christians, meanwhile, developed an alternate vision of Protestantism that linked religious conversion to literacy and freedom. Christian Slavery shows how the contentions between slave owners, enslaved people, and missionaries transformed the practice of Protestantism and the language of race in the early modern Atlantic world.

What are the true origins of Christianity and is there any truth to the belief that many black people wouldn’t be Christians if it weren’t for slavery? When we start digging into the origin of the Christian faith, we find that Africa played a major role in its early years. + The world’s largest church membership is found in Egypt. + Ethiopia declared Christianity their official religion decades before Rome. + The apostles preached in Africa and Arabia before preaching in Europe. While Europeans have been instrumental in the spreading of Christianity, all evidence points to Old Testament laws and customs still being practiced in many parts of Africa, as they have for thousands of years. Newspaper articles from the 17th and 18th centuries mention Africans being in possession of scriptures not familiar to Europeans. The Ethiopian Coptic Bible is the oldest and most complete Bible in existence. If you’re ready to learn the truth about Christianity and Africa’s role in its early years, this is the book you want to read. Christianity was never the white man’s religion.
