Summary | "Pioneer Colored Christians" by Harriet Parks Miller is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the lives of early African American Christians, particularly the Carr family, highlighting their struggles and achievements during and after the era of slavery in the South. It aims to capture the virtues and contributions of individuals within the African American community and the white allies who supported their religious freedom. The opening of the work introduces Aunt Kitty Carr, who shares her remarkable life story and family history, beginning with her childhood in Virginia and subsequent life in Tennessee. Through her narrative, readers learn of the challenges she faced, such as the threat to her freedom and the importance of her faith and family. Aunt Kitty's life exemplifies the resilience and determination of her people to attain dignity, respect, and religious liberty amidst societal challenges. The author expresses a deep admiration for Aunt Kitty and her family's legacy, setting the stage for a broader exploration of the significant yet often overlooked contributions of colored Christians in shaping their communities.
