Gathered from the Fisk Social Science Institute's massive study during the 1930s on race relations, and originally published by the Pilgrim Press in 1969, this volume is a rich resource of liberation from those whose faith was borne and tested by the cruelest of human degradations - slavery. Includes a preface by Paul Radin, author and expert on primal religion.

    During her many years as a newspaper writer, Celestine Sibley has made people her main concern, some disputable, some distinguished, some outrageous, but all inspiring; and at Christmas time she remembers them and the gifts they gave her. The gifts, in fact, are the people themselves and this is really the true meaning and spirit of Christmas.
