{"product_id":"in-darkness-with-god-gomez-jefferson-9780873386074","title":"In Darkness with God: The Life of Joseph Gomez, a Bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church","description":"Joseph Gomez (1890-1979) was a charismatic minister who rose through the ranks of the African Methodist Episcopal Church to be ordained a bishop in 1948. He was also a teacher, civil right pioneer, scholar, writer, and humanitarian. His daughter, Annetta L. Gomez-Jefferson, has drawn on letters, journals, and church records to write his biography and a history of the age in which he lived. Gomez-Jefferson captures the growing concern of the Black middle-class with civil rights and its persistent attempts to confront problems with tactics less confrontational than those of the sixties and seventies. More than a biography, In Darkness with God is a history of Black life during the early part of the century and a chronicle of the political and religious struggles of the first autonomous Black church in the United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gomez-Jefferson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0873386078\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780873386074\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kent State University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.38h x 6.34w x 1.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/16\/1998 pg. 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eUniv PR Books for Public Libry\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2000 pg. 13 - Outstanding","brand":"Gomez-Jefferson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47965740826879,"sku":"9780873386074","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_015755ed-378f-4e6f-a67a-9015977ba25f.jpg?v=1767284488","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-darkness-with-god-gomez-jefferson-9780873386074","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
