Summary "The American Missionary — Volume 42, No. 03, March, 1888" by Various is a collection of articles and reports produced by the American Missionary Association, written during the late 19th century. It addresses various social, educational, and religious issues faced by marginalized communities in the United States, particularly African Americans, Native Americans, and the growing Chinese immigrant population. The central theme revolves around the mission work aimed at improving the lives and educational opportunities of these groups, often emphasizing the role of Christianity in their upliftment and progress. At the start of this volume, the editorial section discusses the financial needs of the American Missionary Association and highlights recent activities related to its educational initiatives, such as the training of black missionaries and the establishment of schools for African Americans in the South. It touches on the significant impact of recent gatherings among black leaders in Georgia aimed at organizing for political rights, as well as reflections on the death of notable workers in the mission field. The opening portion also explores the intersection of religion and education, advocating for the integration of Christian teachings into the education of African Americans and drawing attention to the illiteracy rates prevalent in Southern states. Additionally, articles mention the challenges faced by missions in promoting Christianity in contrast to Islam within Africa, summarizing various perspectives on cultural and religious outreach in the region.
