Women, Race, and Apartheid
By: David M. S. Cohen | January 30, 1992

A Tribute

Double Jeopardy: Racism and Sexism
By: Tina Saxon | July 31, 1989
My doctoral project proposal concerns itself with the issue of black women as senior pastors in the Baptist and other black churches. This is an educational project designed to encourage black women to become more effective leaders in their churches by helping them to appreciate their gifts and talents and not have others to limit [...]

By: Richard Kroeger, Catherine Clark Kroeger | April 30, 1987
There are many great blacks who have influenced our spiritual heritage. We find them both in and out of the Bible. We should like to tell you the story of the priest’s family who took in Moses in his hour of desperation.
