Book Synopsis The Social Teaching of the Black Churches by : Peter J. Paris
Book excerpt: In African American culture, the church is instrumental in establishing and maintaining social order. Professor Paris shows that a study of black church teachings reveals black social ethics. These ethics aren't "abstract moral principles, but sociopolitical quests for liberation and freedom."
