The most famous and most successful traveling
evangelist of the Churches of Christ, who transcended the twentieth-century
"color line" but did not overcome it.
"The Bible is right."
"I have had to rely upon God, he is the only one I had. The
white
man didn't like me because of the color of my skin.
The
colored man didn't
like me because of my religion. Now, son, who else did I have?"
