Bishop Edwards
註釋Bishop Edwards: The Epistle Letters to An African American Trade Union is a moving and exhilarating story of an African American minister of the Gospel who has been imprisoned for his social activism on behalf of aggrieved African American workers. From federal prison, this faithful minister addresses his constituents, a predominately-African American trade union, through twenty-one formal letters (i.e., "the epistles"). Patterned after Dr. King´s "Letter From the Birmingham City Jail" and the Apostle Paul´s New Testament letters to the early Church, the topics of these epistles range from politics, criminal justice, employment discrimination, trafficking in slave labor, organized crime, Christian love and marriage, the deterioration of the black family, and much more all in an effort to defend his Christian faith and to vindicate the universal struggle for peace and social justice.
