The American Missionary — Volume 41, No. 9, September, 1887

"The American Missionary — Volume 41, No. 9, September, 1887" by Various is a historical publication written in the late 19th century. This periodical focuses on the missionary work and social issues concerning African Americans and other marginalized groups in the United States during this time. It highlights the activities and challenges faced by the American Missionary Association, particularly in relation to educational efforts in the South and issues of racial inequality. The opening of the publication discusses the financial difficulties faced by the American Missionary Association and the urgent need for support to continue its work, particularly in light of recent legislative developments in Georgia, such as the "Glenn Bill," which aimed to segregate educational institutions further and impose harsh penalties on those who taught racially integrated classes. It underscores the importance of community contributions and the moral imperative to support the education of formerly enslaved individuals and their descendants. The text emphasizes the role of both black and white educators working together to advance the cause of education and civil rights, as well as the rising tensions surrounding race relations in the South.
