Protestant Missionaries, Asian Immigrants, and Ideologies of Race in America, 1850–1924

About this book

This book examines how in defending Asian rights and their own version of Christian idealism against scientific racism, missionaries developed a complex theology of race that prefigured modern ideologies of multiculturalism and reached its final, belated culmination in the liberal Protestant support of the civil rights movements in the 1960s
