Description
Summary:Jason Shelton and Michael Emerson's Blacks and Whites in Christian America: How Racial Discrimination Shapes Religious Convictions is an in-depth examination of the role of racial group membership in the religious lives of Black and White Protestants. To explore these differences, Shelton and Emerson draw on data from two nationally representative surveys, as well as in-depth interviews with Black and White Protestants. In this volume, Shelton and Emerson demonstrate how race matters in the formation of Protestants' beliefs about morality, impoverishment, race relations, and other religious and social issues.
