Overview

"The American Missionary, Volume 34, No. 11, November 1880" by Various is a historical publication that delves into the missionary efforts and educational initiatives aimed at the African American community during the late 19th century. This volume reflects on the growth and challenges faced by the American Missionary Association (AMA) as it seeks to educate and uplift Freedmen and other marginalized populations in America, amidst the broader socio-political context of the time. The opening of this volume highlights the proceedings of the AMA's Annual Meeting held in Norwich, Connecticut, which gathered church leaders and advocates for discussions on the progress of missionary work. It outlines the Association's vision for "enlargement," emphasizing the need for increased resources and facilities to accommodate the growing demands of education among African Americans, Native Americans, and Chinese immigrants. Key elements include reports on financial progress, educational initiatives, and calls for sacrificial giving to support the cause, with various figures within the church advocating for comprehensive Christian education as a pathway to empowerment and social justice for disenfranchised groups.
