"The American Missionary — Volume 37, No. 2, February, 1883" by Various is a historical missionary publication written in the late 19th century. This volume serves as an informative magazine detailing the ongoing efforts of the American Missionary Association, particularly focusing on their mission work among marginalized communities, including freedmen and Chinese immigrants. The articles likely explore themes of education, social uplift, charitable donations, and the initiatives that various religious organizations are undertaking to support these populations. At the start of this volume, various editorial contents are introduced, highlighting significant developments in mission work and calls to action for support and cooperation from church communities. The opening discusses the urgent plea for contributions to fulfill the needs of schools and churches among the colored residents of the South, and it commends progressive actions by the Southern M. E. Church in aiding the uplift of African American women and children. Additionally, statistical data about national literacy and educational efforts among freedmen are presented, along with reports of revivals and community engagements from different regions, establishing a picture of the active role of missionaries during this period.
