During slavery, many enslaved Black individuals were required to worship in white churches as their own spiritual practices were often forbidden. This segregation of worship spaces reinforced power dynamics and control over enslaved people.

Was it ever hard for Saint Katharine Drexel to practice her faith?

How was Tubman like Moses in the Bible what was her promise land?

She was like Moses because she led her people out of bondage and slavery. She had no "Promised Land" as such since her connection to Moses was that she was a coordinator of slave liberation. However, you could reasonably say that Canada was her "Promised Land" since Blacks who escaped to Canada gained their freedom.


I am doing a SBA and the question is asked to compare slavery with the apprenticeship system - What are the religious institutions in the apprenticeship system in 1834. thanks in advance?

Slavery was a condition from which there was no escape, unless your owner freed you upon his or her death; it was generally based on race, and was justified by the common (but sadly mistaken) belief that the white race was superior to the black race and that it was thus acceptable for blacks to be enslaved. (Some theologians asserted that the Bible also approved of slavery, but while that is true, the Bible did not specify race as a prerequisite. Slaves in Bible times were often men and women who had been won as a result of a war.) Those countries and colonies that had slavery in the 1700s and 1800s captured Africans and forcibly brought them to whatever country sought to use their labor. The Africans had no say in the matter.Apprenticeship, on the other hand, existed for a fixed number of years and was entered into voluntarily. In an era before there were universities or vocational schools, a young person who wanted to learn a trade apprenticed himself (and occasionally herself) to someone who was a master of that trade. For example, a young man who wanted to be a printer would work for a certain number of years, learning that occupation from a master printer, and at the end of the apprenticeship, the young man would be free to start his own printing business. I am not certain about religious institutions-- apprenticeship was an economic agreement, rather than a religious one. But both European and American culture were dominated by Christianity, so the observance of religious principles and practices would certainly have been a part of life.


Is it true that one thing that most southerners shared was their religion it was only time that blacks and whites mixed?

While it is true that religion was a significant aspect of culture in the American South, it is not accurate to say that it was the only thing shared among southerners. There were many other cultural elements, such as traditions, values, and food, that were also commonly shared. The mixing of blacks and whites in the South was a complex and gradual process influenced by various social, political, and economic factors throughout history.
