Anderson Black and white Southern Baptists recently took a look at their joint past to see if they could learn any lessons for the future, especially in a time some Black Baptists see as a time for the erosion of civil rights. “Summarily, the Black community is largely convinced that the United States is repeating an era of erosion of civil rights of Blacks coincidental to the period of the ending of Reconstruction in the last century,’’ according to Sidney Smith, a Black consultant in the ethnic liaison unity of the Baptist Sunday School Board. Smith made his remarks during a meeting of the historical commission of the Southern Baptist Convention. He said that at the end of Reconstruction and the beginning of the Jim Crow period in U.S. race relations, white Southern Baptists did not adjust adequately to meet the needs of Black Southern Baptists. “The dynamics exist today for a repeat of that tragedy," Smith Said. There are approximately 275,000 Black Southern Baptists in the 13.6 million - member Church Decries Hate War ROCHESTER, N.Y.-Delegates to the 13th General Synod of the United Church of Christ this week deplored mounting racial tensions and violence against Blacks. In a “Pronouncement on Increased Violence Against Blacks in the United States,” the Synod especially condemned Ku Klux Klan intimidation and terrorism. It urged church members to stand up ter the rights of victims and potential victims of racial violence. Local churches were asked to monitor acts of racial violence within their own communities. The Synod demanded that Congress and the Reagan administration keep the Voting Rights Act intact, and that the Justice Department prosecute police brutality perpetrators and extremists who engage in violence against Blacks. In a related action, the Synod approved a resolution on the children of Atlanta, asking President Reagan to exercise the powers of the federal government to assure that justice prevails there and to Reaganauts... Continued From Page 4 campaigns, the virtual disappearance of mass civil disodedience pioneered by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., helps to explain how we got into this present pickle. This must not be allowed to happen again, otherwise we’ll be consigned to the destiny of the mythical Greek hero fated forever to roll a pebble up the mountain arduously, then watching it roll back down before it reaches the tqx At the same time, battles around the Voting Rights Act of 1965, reapportionment and affirmative action cannot be neglected. It is no cliche to say that “freedom is a constant struggle” or that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. We should not forget at election time how certain Congresspersons voted and what forces backed them,. Like the Congressional Black Caucus, we must not only oppose but present a “Constructive Alternative.” This means not only running in Democratic primaries but running against Democrats, Republicans and "Republo crats” who refuse to toe the line on the issues on an independent ticket if necessary. This is the bright vision of Rev. Ben Chavis--the successor to Dr. King according to many -- and the National Black Independent Political Party . Baptists Look At Black Heritage denomination, making it the largest ethnic minority in the church body but a far cry from the convention’s founding in 1845 when approximately one - third of its members were Black - most of them slaves and members by condition rather than conviction. The Southern Baptist Convention’s founding stemmed in large part from the slavery issue and the refusal of the national Baptist body at the time to appoint slaveholders as missionaries. The abolition of slavery brought a black exodus from slave - relationship churches and the formation of separate Black Southern Baptist churches and by 1900, most black Southern Baptists found alternative membership in the National Baptist Convention of America. David D. Moore, a church history professor from William Jewell College in Liberty, Mo., told the group there were six major reasons for the withdrawal of Blacks from white churches following the Civil War. They included: segregation in the churches; a desire by Blacks to manage their own affairs; a separate church call for a national day of prayer for the victims and families. The Synod also adopted a resolution urging Congress to extend the Voting Rights Act Amendment of 1981 until the next census in 1990 as a protection to voting gains of Blacks and Hispanics. It supported affirmative action employment policies and equal employment opportunity procedures. Buy only a Black newspaper September 17. You’ll do more than read the news. You’ll be the news.

But a leader of the movement to reaffiliate Black Churches with the Southern Baptist Convention suggested Black congregations could be a model for the future as "Christian bridge builders” by becoming dually aligned with the SBC and the Black National Baptist Convention. “By being anchored on both sides of the infamous racial divide, we (Blacks) in multiple affiliated churches can facilitate movement back and forth by Lynier Beauty Supplies 12th & Hopkins St. Augusto, Go.
