To Save My Race from Abuse

To Save My Race from Abuse by Edward J. Robinson is a compelling exploration of the life of Samuel Robert Cassius, who was born to a slave mother and a white father in Virginia in 1853. Throughout this inspiring biography, Robinson delves into the extraordinary journey of Cassius, who emerged from a challenging childhood to become a significant figure in the Restorationist Movement (Disciples of Christ) while working as a coal miner in Indiana. This enlightening narrative not only chronicles Cassius' remarkable achievements but also addresses the broader themes of race relations and political activism within the context of African American history. With 224 pages of rich storytelling, Robinson's work is a vital contribution to Black studies and provides readers with a profound understanding of faith, resilience, and the pursuit of justice. Published in 2007, this hardback edition stands as a testament to an extraordinary life and the enduring quest for equality.
