Source: Biography MARCH WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH Jarena Lee (1783 - d. unknown) Jarena Lee was the first known female preacher of the African Methodist Episcopal Church (AMEC). Lee experienced a dramatic conversion experience that was not atypical during the early 19th-Century American revivalism period. Thousands were converted in an atmosphere of emotionalism and these intense experiences were often accompanied by visions, dreams and bouts of temporary illness. As a woman, Lee was not initially permitted to preach within the AME church. Despite this temporary roadblock, she continued to feel called on by God. In 1811, Lee was permitted to serve as an exhorter for well-known Bishop Allen. In 1821 she was approved by the church community to lead prayer meetings in a rented house. On a particular Sunday sermon at Allen’s church, Lee interrupted the preacher and spoke of her call to preach. Bishop Allen publicly endorsed Lee as a preacher within the religious community which jumpstarted her 30 year long evangelistic career. Preaching engagements included those in the New Jersey towns of Trenton, Princeton, Burlington, Salem, Woodstock and Snow Hill. Mes de la Historia de la Mujer Jarena Lee (1783 – m. desconocida) Jarena Lee fue la primera mujer predicadora conocida de la Iglesia Episcopal Metodista Africana (AMEC). Lee experimentó una conversión dramática durante el período de avivamiento estadounidense de principios del siglo XIX. Miles de personas se convirtieron en una atmósFera de emocionalismo y estas intensas experiencias a menudo iban acompañadas de visiones, sueños y episodios de enfermedades temporales. Como mujer, inicialmente a Lee no se le permitió predicar dentro de la iglesia AME. A pesar de este obstáculo temporal, siguió sintiéndose llamada por Dios. En 1811, se le permitió a Lee servir como exhortador del conocido obispo Allen. En 1821 fue aprobada por la comunidad de la iglesia para dirigir reuniones de oración en una casa alquilada. En un sermón dominical en particular en la iglesia de Allen, Lee interrumpió al predicador y habló de su llamado a predicar. El obispo Allen apoyó públicamente a Lee como predicadora dentro de la comunidad religiosa, lo que impulsó su carrera evangelística de 30 años. Los compromisos de predicación incluyeron los de las ciudades de Trenton, Princeton, Burlington, Salem, Woodstock y Snow Hill en Nueva Jersey.

  • Divesting from Apartheid: a Summary of State and Municipal Legislative Action on South Africa by Sandy Boyer
    ACOA. American Committee on Africa Divesting from Apartheid: A Summary of State and Municipal Legislative Action on South Africa by Sandy Boyer 1982 was a year of major victories for the movement to withdraw public funds from companies whose investment in South Africa subsidizes the apartheid system. Massachusetts, Michigan, Connecticut and the cities of Philadelphia, Wilmington and Grand Rapids all enacted legislation that will force the divestment of up to $300 million. The Massachusetts bill, which requires state pension funds to sell all stocks and bonds in companies doing business in South Africa, is the most comprehensive divestment legislation yet passed by any state. Philadelphia is the first major American city to pass a divestment ordinance. Both the Massachusetts and the Philadelphia bills call for full divestment of pension funds, and both are being used as model legislation in campaigns around the country. Already in 1983, legislative action against apartheid is being worked on in 21 states and 8 cities and counties. The following summary provides detailed information on this legislation. We hope it will be useful not only to legislators, but to many concerned people from the churches, the unions, and civil rights, community and campus organizations who have been working to end public investment in South African racism. We hope this summary will help you in your efforts to win many more victories in 1983. On May 1, 1980, the Citizens Committee on Responsible ALABAMA Investment which had been created to carry out the refer STATE ACTION: State Representative James Buskey will endum mandate, submitted its 45 page report.
