Secular, Scarred and Sacred: Education and Religion Among the Black
Community in Nineteenth-Century Canada focuses on the paternal yet
exclusionary role of Protestant Whites and their churches among
refugee slaves and free Blacks in nineteenth-century Upper
Canada-many of whom had migrated to Canada to escape the dreaded
system of slavery in the United States. This book contends that
White Protestant churches provided organizational, social and
theological models among Black communities in Canada. Author Jerome
Teelucksingh further explores how Black migrants seized the
educational opportunities offered by churches and schools to both
advance academically and pursue an ideal of virtuous citizenship
that equipped them for new social challenges.
