Summary

Published between 1835 and 1907, these four narratives share a theme thatcontinues to dominate African-American literature today: the use of Christianityto give strength and comfort in the struggle for liberation from caste andgender restrictions. Widely considered the first American-born woman (black orwhite) to give a public address, Maria Stewart links the dual concerns ofspirituality and freedom in her fiery orations. Jarena Lee, the earliest blackfemale preacher identified with the African Methodist Episcopal Church, offers astirring account of her religious calling. Julia Foote presents anautobiographical sketch of her experiences as a renowned Ohio evangelist. And,in the last of these inspirational narratives, free-born Virginia Broughtonrecounts her twenty years as a missionary.
