Book Description
"The history of black people in the United States is a history of challenge and resilience, of suffering and solidarity, of injustice and prophetic resistance. It is a history steeped in the hope and strength that African Americans have derived from their faith in God and from the church that provided safety, community, consolation, and empowerment. In this new volume from pastor and scholar Rev. Dr. Wayne Croft, the history of the black Baptist church unfolds-from its theological roots in the Radical Reformation of Europe and North America, to the hush arbors and praise houses of slavery's invisible institution, to the evolution of distinctively black denominations. In a wonderfully readable narrative style, the author relates the development of diverse black Baptist associations and conventions, from the eighteenth century through the twentieth century's civil rights movement. Ideal for clergy and laity alike, the book highlights key leaders, theological concepts, historic events, and social concerns that influenced the growth of what we know today as the diverse black Baptist family of churches"--

Book Description
Brooks's history claims that the Silver Bluff Church of Aiken, South Carolina, was the first African American Baptist Church in America, established in 1774 or 1775 by the Rev. Wait Palmer of Stonington, Ct. With the advent of the Revolutionary War, the owner of the land on which the church stood abandoned the plantation, and the Rev. George Brooks and 50 slaves fled to the protection of the British in Savannah. Brooks details the subsequent career of George Brooks in Nova Scotia and Sierra Leone, then tells of the end of the Silver Bluff Church. It flourished until 1793, when much of the congregation was absorbed into the First African Baptist Church of Savannah, Georgia, whose power and influence grew over time, eventually leading to the disintegration of the Silver Bluff Church.
