Protestant Missionaries, Asian Immigrants, and Ideologies of Race in America, 1850–1924 - Studies in Asian Americans
Snow, Jennifer (Columbia University, New York, USA)
This book examines how in defending Asian rights and their own version of Christian idealism against scientific racism, missionaries developed a complex theology of race that prefigured modern ideologies of multiculturalism and reached its final, belated culmination in the liberal Protestant support of the civil rights movements in the 1960s.
