African American Studies History Second Great Awakening Race Relations in Ohio From the Pulpit to the Streets: The Impact of the Second Great Awakening on Race Relations in Ohio is a project which examines the ways that the Second Great Awakening influenced racial thought and race relations in Ohio. When I started this project I had noticed that race relations in Ohio started to shift from the 1830s to 1850 from race riots driving African Americans out of the state to by the 1850s some white citizens working with the African American community. This change, illustrated by the shift from Ohio’s Black Laws which in 1804 and 1807 heavily restricted Blacks’ rights to the situation in the 1850s when white lawyers and citizens were working in conjunction with the Black community fighting for African Americans’ rights and against federal statutes. What was not clear was how and why this had occurred. Many times I was left with the description of abolitionists acting against the slave system. What I was left pondering was the ideology that influenced these abolitionists to turn on the racial status quo and why in that particular moment? This project aims to illuminate the influence of the socio-religious movement of the Second Great Awakening and how the religious teachings of the movement effected those fighting for African Americans’ rights and against slavery. This thesis focuses on the Second Great Awakening’s influence on Theodore Weld and the Lane Rebels of Cincinnati, James G. Birney, and Salmon P. Chase. 2012-06-25 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1338317566 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1338317566 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
