As both a preeminent scholar of Balck Angelican and Episcopalians
and devout parishoner, the late James Hewitt writes an illuminus
hsitory of one of the most famous black congregrations in America.
From its humble beginnings, St. Philip's originated from classes
conducted by Elais Neau and other Angelic clerks for the society
for the propagations of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. From these
cateisem classes emerged a higly educated, African-American group
comprised of free and enslaved blacks. W.E.B Dubuois hailed it as
the foundation for the Talented Tenth in his classic book Souls of
Balck Folk After the American Revolution, St. Philip's has since
becoem the church of middle-class blacks across New York City.
Hewlitt's careful and percise scholarship chronicles over two
centuries of of the church's history, which fills a significant
lagun in African-American Religious history.
