Examines the degree to which religious experience is central to African American political involvement and success. Applying the techniques of a cultural resource model to this question, the book makes a case for the formative influence of religion.

Frederick Harris wades into a perennially contentious debate: the degree to which religious experience is central to African American political involvement and success. For the first time applying the new techniques of a cultural resource model to this question, Harris makes a strong case for the formative influence of religion, both as a source of strength and often determinative in practical political consequences. Harris''s argument overturns a large body of quantitative research on political activity, principally in the Chicago religious community.
