family and religion in the black tradition. Monographs in the series

they carved out a religion and fashioned a rieh and expressive
culture that refleeted their uninhibited imagination and provided a
means to articulate their hopes and Kurts, their dreams and doubts.
Research will not only focus an the pass and present, but will also
look at the adequacy of current modeln of family and religion to
take the black community into the twenty-first century.
