Why I Left the Church, Why I Came Back, and Why I Just Might Leave Again: Memories of Growing Up African American and Catholic 1st edition
Jean K. Douglas
Douglas provides her readers with a new lens through which to view parochial teachings on race and gender. Her touching account of the way priests, nuns, and her mother influence her formative years reveals for the first time the conflicts a Black girl faces trying to come to terms with her faith while growing up in poverty.
