Bishop Edwards
Bishop Edwards: A Gospel for African American Workers During the Age of Obama is a moving and exhilarating story of a bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in the city of Baltimore. This fictional minister of the gospel has been imprisoned for his social conservative views of gender relations and marriage, as well as for his activism on behalf of aggrieved African American workers. From federal prison, this faithful minister addresses his constituents, which is a predominant African American trade union, through twenty-one formal letters (i.e., epistles). Borrowing heavily from the Christian teachings of the Apostle Paul and Martin Luther King, Jr., the topics of these epistles range from marriage equality, gender conflict, racial conflict, class conflict, trafficking in illegal immigrants, the sex trade, the deterioration of the African American family, political economy, law, and religion--all in an effort to defend his Christian faith and to vindicate the universal struggle for peace and social justice.
