Publisher's Synopsis

""An Appeal For Negro Bishops, But No Separation"" is a book written by John Wesley Edward Bowen in 1912. The book argues for the appointment of black bishops in the Episcopal Church in the United States, but also emphasizes the importance of maintaining unity within the church and not separating based on race. Bowen, an African American bishop himself, draws on his own experiences and observations to make his case for greater representation and leadership for black clergy. The book also addresses issues of racial prejudice and discrimination within the church and society at large. Overall, ""An Appeal For Negro Bishops, But No Separation"" is a significant historical document that sheds light on the struggles and aspirations of black Americans within the religious sphere during the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
