After all, ...

The greatest of all invitations came when God sent His Son to offer heaven to mankind. Many don't know this to be true because they ...

The growing slave trade and the enactment of Black codes placed the city's Black women within the rigid confines of a social hierarchy ordered by race and gender. At the Threshold of Liberty reveals how these women--enslaved, fugitive, and free--imagined new identities and lives beyond the oppressive restrictions intended to prevent them from ever experiencing liberty, self-respect ...

D'où un manque de scientificité, car certains auteurs ne firent pas l'effort de tendre vers la neutralité axiologique. Or, ce qui est tenté dans ce livre, c'est de faire preuve de ...
