In Christian Slavery, Katharine Gerbner contends that religion was fundamental to the development of both slavery and race in the Protestant Atlantic world. Slave owners in the Caribbean and elsewhere established governments and legal codes based on an ideology of “Protestant Supremacy”, which excluded the majority of enslaved men and women from Christian communities. For slaveholders, Christianity was a sign of freedom, and most believed that slaves should not be eligible for conversion.
When Protestant missionaries arrived in the plantation colonies in the 1670s, they were appalled that most slave owners rejected the prospect of slave conversion. Slaveholders blamed the evangelizing newcomers for slave rebellions. In response, Quaker, Anglican, and Moravian missionaries articulated a vision of “Christian Slavery”, arguing that Christianity would make slaves hardworking and loyal.
Over time, missionaries increasingly used the language of race to support their arguments for slave conversion. Enslaved Christians, meanwhile, developed an alternate vision of Protestantism that linked religious conversion to literacy and freedom. Christian Slavery shows how the contentions between slave owners, enslaved people, and missionaries transformed the practice of Protestantism and the language of race in the early modern Atlantic world.

OK so at first I think this is going to be a typical Leftist agenda driven screed but then I look at the description and realize it looks like it is actually being pretty fair and is taking a serious historical perspective that might actually be interested in the truth — which is going to be generally uncomfortable for both sides of our current day political divide. The truth is that this is an issue on which both sides were Christians or at least both said they were. Pro-slavery whites, anti-slavery whites and the slaves themselves were all mostly Christian. And in particular, there are no grounds to suggest that the slaves Christianity was somehow less genuine because it wasn’t from their indigenous culture. They were Christians. Period.

Fair or unfair: quite simply, it is irrelevant. But pseudo intellectuals have ways of making anything to the purpose. Ugh!

The usual wingnuts are triggered because there is no obvious trigger in the description; then they go ahead and paste in their usual diatribes against “Leftists” and “pseudo intellectuals” anyway…
