Only a handful lived to tell their story. Little has been written about the Peoples Temple in the context of black religion in America. Twenty-five years after the tragedy of Jonestown, scholars from various disciplines assess the impact of the Peoples Temple on the black religious experience. 606 $aAfrican Americans$xReligion 606 $aAfrican American churches$xHistory 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xReligion. 615 0$aAfrican American churches$xHistory. 676 $a289.9 701 $aMoore$b Rebecca$f1951-$01390027 701 $aPinn$b Anthony B$0872740 701 $aSawyer$b Mary R$01482021 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783354403321 996 $aPeoples Temple and Black religion in America$93699355 997 $aUNINA
