Born a slave in 1854, Daniel Rudd was owned by a Catholic family in Bardstown, Ky.
That upbringing, and his eventual emancipation and education, led Rudd to become a forward-thinking Catholic activist in America.
“In 1888, he said he believed he would live long enough to see a black man as president of the republic,” said Gary B. Agee, an adjunct professor of church history at the Anderson University School of Theology.
The University of Arkansas Press has published A Cry for Justice: Daniel Rudd and His Life in Black Catholicism, Journalism, and Activism, 1854-1933 by Dr. Gary Agee, an adjunct faculty member of the Anderson University School of Theology. Agee has been teaching church history at the seminary for a number of years.
The Anderson University School of Theology is pleased to announce Dr. Gilbert Lozano will be the 2012 Harp Professor in Residence.
