Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book confronts the institution of slavery from the perspective of the Catholic Church in the United States in the early to mid-19th century. The author, a clergyman, explores how the Church's commitment to the doctrine of Communion of Saintsâ"the belief in the spiritual unity and shared experience of all Christiansâ"confronts the reality of slavery and the oppression of enslaved people within the Church's own ranks. The book delves into historical examples of the efforts of prominent saints and clergy to mitigate the evils of slavery and secure the release of enslaved people. It also examines the ways in which both the Northern and Southern branches of the Catholic Church in the United States have grappled with the issue of slavery, and the influence of the Church's teachings on public opinion and the broader anti-slavery movement. Through the author's examination of Church doctrine, historical events, and the experiences of enslaved people, this book provides a unique perspective on the complex relationship between the Catholic Church and slavery in the United States.
