Success of the Protestant missionary enterprise throughout the African continent depends upon the practice of racial equality between missionaries and natives. Missionaries going into the continent, and now at work, must consciously avoid all forms of segregation and discrimination, existing as a result of racial and cultural differences. The article treats 4 topics: (1) the historical background of African-missionary relations; (2) general guides for a program to reduce discrimination; (3) examples demonstrating social integration in person-to-person behavior; (4) principles of effective interracial relations. Foreign missions personnel are admonished to attend to the importance of race relations within the US, and the effect thereon of ethnic-group behavior in Africa. M. F. Lewis.
