Scholars who have assessed the racial attitudes of southern Protestants in the late nineteenth century have strangely neglected the pronouncements of two outspoken bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. Affirming in the 1880s that white southerners would "never tamely and without protest submit to the intrusion of colored men into places of trust and profit and responsibility," Bishop George Foster Pierce insisted that blacks had no "right on juries, [in] legislatures, or in [other] public office." And he frowned equally on their pursuit of higher learning; advanced schooling instilled expectations of advancement "far above the station he [the Negro] was created to fill," the churchman felt, including hopes for interracial mating. Nor was the succeeding senior Southern Methodist bishop more liberal in outlook
