It begins with the founding of St. Peter Claver Catholic Church in 1911, the first Catholic mission for African Americans in Detroit, and notes the successive establishment of four other Catholic churches targeted for black Detroiters, the last of which was established in north-central Detroit in 1949. It perhaps inordinately focuses on the nature of black interaction with the Church and thus examines the substances of letters from black parishioners as well as oral accounts that provide rich data on protest and agitation among twentieth-century black Catholics in Detroit. Versions of black consciousness, rarely touched upon in the extant literature, surfaced in the late 1920s, in the 1940s, and erupted in 1970-1971 and 1989. The paper hopes to draw attention to these moments of protest, to use them to spiral African-American voices into the national discourse, and to add to what is known about black Detroit and about black Catholicism in the urban north.
