"The American Missionary — Volume 39, No. 07, July, 1885" is a historical account published in the late 19th century. This work serves as a periodical detailing the activities, reflections, and ongoing efforts of the American Missionary Association, focusing particularly on the education and upliftment of African Americans and other marginalized groups post-Civil War. The text discusses various themes such as the financial state of the association, educational advancements in institutions like Fisk University, and the social progress of the colored populace in the United States. At the start of this volume, the editorial section reveals a sense of urgency regarding financial sustainability and the significant work being achieved by the missionaries. The opening highlights the continued growth and success of schools established for formerly enslaved individuals and the challenges faced due to a lack of funds. It also touches on the pride of the colored communities represented at the New Orleans Exposition, showcasing their skills and trade capabilities despite historical adversities. The chronicled efforts aim not just to inform but to encourage support for the organization’s mission of education and equality, conveying a message of hope and resilience in the face of societal challenges.
