Summary: | The Anglican Church in Tanzania emerged from the work of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa (UMCA) and the Australian Church Missionary Society (CMSA).

Using archives and interviews as sources, this article considers the roles and reaction of the Anglican missions in the struggle for political independence in Tanganyika and Zanzibar, the effects of independence on the missions and the Church more broadly, and the responses of the missions to ujamaa in Tanzania. |
