Pictures of Slavery in Church and State

Including Personal Reminiscences, Biographical Sketches and Anecdotes on Slavery by John Wesley and Richard Watson

About this book

"Pictures of Slavery in Church and State" written by a minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church and a leading U.S. abolitionist at the time, John Dixon Long (1817 – 1894), is considered to be one of the most influential readings in abolitionist circles. Dixon debated in his book the issue of slavery, breaking the silence on what was openly discussed as hypocrisy and cowardice of the Methodist religious hierarchy, given their founders' adamant prescriptions against slavery in the early doctrines of the Methodist Episcopal Church.Contents: What Is Southern Slavery, and Who Are SlavesMethodist Episcopal Church and SlaveryThe Conference ReportThe Mischievous ColtAbolitionistLove of Military TitlesGoing in DebtAunt PhillisPopular Preachers in the SouthRum and SlaveryThe Wicked SlaveThe Foreign Slave-tradeThe Great American RepublicTobacco and SlaverySlavery and NovelsThe Baltimore ConferenceSlavery and White LaborMaryland HospitalityPersonal IncidentsThe Fourth of JulyA Dying Babe in JailTestimony of John Wesley Against Slavery
