The Negro in Holy Writ
"Establishes that the Negro race is described in the Bible, contra recent attempts to read them out of it." -scriptoriumdaily.com
"Not an agitator, a strong advocate of self-reliance, eschewed self-denigration, achieved distinction as an editor and bishop." - Fire in His Heart: Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner and the A.M.E. Church
In "The Negro in Holy Writ (1900)," a book of less than a hundred pages, Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner proves that the African race is described in the Bible, which in turn provided evidence for the unity of all mankind, contrary to the attempts of some read the African out of it.
Benjamin Tucker Tanner (1835 –1923) was an African American clergyman and editor. He served as a Bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church from 1886, and founded the Christian Recorder an important early African American newspaper.
Summing up his argument, Tanner writes that "the ancient Cushim were the no less ancient Ethiopians. And that the Ethiopians were Negroes, the testimony of the facts above clearly demonstrate. Therefore, the conclusion reached is that the Cushim found in Holy Writ were Ethiopians; and Ethiopians were Negroes; therefore, Negroes are mentioned in Holy Writ."
