  • Summary

  • “This is a woman who loved God, spent her entire life devoted in service to him, and can teach us so much.” 

    —Jasmine Holmes


    In this episode of Carved in Ebony, Jasmine Holmes and Abena Ansah-Wright discuss Amanda Berry Smith, a preacher, missionary, writer, and minister born to enslaved parents in Maryland in 1837. After her father purchased freedom for himself and his family, Smith became deeply  involved in the Methodist church, and eventually served as a missionary in India, Africa, and Great Britain, among other places. Later in life, she opened an orphanage, which she funded with the proceeds from her autobiography.
