Quotes by Heath W. Carter (?)

“new studies increasingly emphasized that for women, African Americans, and other workers excluded from the early labor movement, Christianity was often the main resource at their disposal. Scholars of the antebellum era found slaves making their master’s religion their own and mill girls rebuking their employers for the “heaps of shining gold” that stood between them “and a righteous God.”
― Heath W Carter, The Pew and the Picket Line: Christianity and the American Working Class

“America’s industrial history has often been a history of contact and collision between Christianity and capitalism.”
― Heath W Carter, The Pew and the Picket Line: Christianity and the American Working Class
