520 |a In addition to exemplifying the richness of the Black experience, religion is a significant component of Black culture to investigate because it reveals volumes about the social condition of Black people within the racist and stratified context of American society. Furthermore, despite the tendency of many scholars to speak of the "Black church," Afro-American religion is a variegated phenomenon which encompasses prestigious mainline congregations, struggling rural churches, and a wide array of syncretic sectarian movements. The essays in this special issue on "Black American Religion in the Twentieth Century" support these observations. Furthermore, each essay examines a specific dimension of Black religiosity. Some of the contributors have been engaged in the study of Black American religion for some time, while others have ventured into this endeavor in recent years. This collective effort is designed to prompt others to join us in furthering researching a topic on which social scientists have uncovered only the tip of the iceberg.
