The Black Church Analysis: What Does Rev. Wright Mean?
What does the "Black Church" come to mean these days? Media personalities are not tired of trying to find out about what it means. More and more interviews are conducted with theologians and pastors to try to define it.
Black people created a religion that blends Christianity with others to form a new religion. The Black Church is the invisible church where enslaved Africans were not allowed to worship during the day. They ended up "stealing away tonight" so their masters would not find out what was going on. The official Black church started in Philadelphia. It started before the Civil Rights.
The Black church emerged as a religion of protest against white slave holders unwilling to let black people worship. The issues surrounding the movements of 1963 and on revolved around the idea that Black people want to affirm and assert themselves.
The Black Church affirms Black People's humanity. that is why most black people go to a church where they feel welcome.
