N2  - "The American Missionary — Volume 44, No. 05, May, 1890" by Various is a historical periodical likely focused on social issues in America, written in the late 19th century. This volume discusses various aspects of missionary work, particularly concerning African Americans, Native Americans, and immigrant communities. The publication serves as a medium for sharing updates, educational efforts, and the progress of various missions, aimed at both informing and soliciting support for these causes.  At the start of this issue, the editorial section outlines the current state of the American Missionary Association's work, highlighting financial updates and an ambitious new mission in Alaska among the Eskimo Indians. It emphasizes the urgent need for support and recruitment of strong, dedicated missionaries to meet the challenges presented by the character of the local population. The opening also suggests a focus on educational advancement for African Americans, including insights into societal prejudices and reflections on the progress made since the Civil War, setting a broader context for the ongoing mission work detailed throughout the volume.
