In this course, Rev. Dr. Marshall Hatch takes viewers on a journey through the history and impact of the Black church in America, from the religion of white slaveholders passed to enslaved peoples to the role of the church today in the era of Black Lives Matter. He teaches on the Civil War, Reconstruction, the development of Black denominations due to segregation, prominent Black church leaders and theologians, the Civil Rights era, and the new time of racial reckoning in America today.
