Summary
During most of the twentieth century, Archibald J. Carey Sr. (1868-1931) and Archibald J. Carey Jr. (1908-1981), father and son, exemplified a blend of ministry and politics that many African American religious leaders pursued. Their sacred and secular concerns merged in efforts to improve the spiritual and material well-being of their congregations. But as political alliances became necessary, both wrestled with moral consequences and varied outcomes.
