Wanted - Leaders! A Study of Negro Development.
—
First edition and scarce to commerce. Theodore DuBose Bratton (1862-1944), an Episcopal Bishop of Mississippi, examines Black leadership and development across Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States. His study spans historical and contemporary issues, addressing Afro-American influence in Liberia, Haiti, and other regions of Africa.
Published under the auspices of the Presiding Bishop and Council, the work reflects early 20th-century Episcopal perspectives on racial progress and missionary engagement. “The Education of the Negro” and “The Christian Development of the Negro” are chapters of substantial length.
The brown stiff wrappers and printed front cover suggest a publication intended for ecclesiastical or academic circulation rather than mass-market distribution.
Description: Wanted - Leaders! A Study of Negro Development.
