Forging Freedom: The Formation of Philadelphia’s Black Community, 1720–1840
Gary B. Nash
This book is the first to trace the fortunes of the earliest large free black community in the U. S. Nash shows how black Philadelphians struggled to shape a family life, gain occupational competence, organize churches, establish social networks, advance cultural institutions, educate their children, and train leaders who would help abolish slavery.
