Overview

"The American Missionary — Volume 44, No. 06, June, 1890" by Various is a historical periodical published in the late 19th century. The publication serves as a platform for the American Missionary Association, focusing on the progress and challenges in missionary work among African Americans, Native Americans, and Chinese immigrants during this time. It aims to highlight social issues, educational efforts, and the role of Christian missions in addressing these matters. The opening of this volume features an editorial discussing the relocation of the association's offices and includes a sermon by Dr. R.S. Storrs that emphasizes the significance of educating African Americans in post-Civil War America. Storrs argues for the necessity of moral and educational foundations for the newly enfranchised African American population to ensure their successful integration into society. The text also contains announcements about new missionary appointments in Alaska, various reports on educational progress for colored people in the South, and notes on church activities demonstrating the community's ongoing efforts toward revival and improvement in civil rights. These elements illustrate the critical intersection of faith, education, and social justice in the context of American missionary work at the time. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
