Summary:

"The American Missionary - Volume 41, No. 6, June, 1887" by Various is a historical publication presented as a collection of essays and reports related to missionary work in the United States. Written in the late 19th century, it delves into societal themes involving racial and ethnic relations in America, particularly focusing on the experiences and challenges faced by African Americans, Native Americans, and Chinese immigrants during this time. The publication aims to raise awareness and support for missionary efforts and the education of marginalized communities. The opening of this volume features various content sections, including editorials, appeals for donations, and reports on different missionary activities. It discusses the financially precarious situation of the American Missionary Association (A.M.A.) and emphasizes the need for increased contributions to avoid falling into debt. Additionally, the text highlights firsthand accounts from the field, showcasing personal stories of individuals engaged in missionary work, detailing the struggles for funding, and underlining the significance of education and moral guidance for communities in need. Through these narratives, the publication illuminates the broader context of social responsibility and compassion driving missionary efforts at that time.
