It introduces the denominations and their demographics before relating their historical developmentÃ�Â�from the eighteenth century to the end of the Civil Rights MovementÃ�Â�into the groups we know today. A final chapter sketches the state of the black Christian church bodies today and their ongoing contributions to a more just American society.
