LEONARD, JOSEPH T. — Theology and Race Relations.

Milwaukee: The Bruce Publishing Company, 1963. 1st edition. "Beginning with a long look at the nature of discrimination in the light of the unity and social nature of man, and of the evil effects of discrimination on men as a whole.. The right to life, to work, to marry, to decent housing, to education, to worship, to attend Catholic schools - each is examined in turn. Also treated are sit-in demonstrations and their morality, Freedom Marches, the reasons why the Church remained silent about segregation for such a long time, and other pertinent issues...[the author] bases much of his awareness of the "Negro problem" on his work in Negro parishes in Mississippi, South-west Louisiana, Florida, and Texas and his subsequent observations in these places." Pp.xii/316, book label (St Dominic's Priory, Newcastle upon Tyne) to inside front board. Black cloth, dustwrapper rubbed with edge chipping. G+/Good.
