Danielle L. McGuire’s At the Dark End of the Street, “an important, original contribution to civil rights historiography”, discusses the topic of rape and sexual assault towards African American women, and how this played a major role in causing the civil rights movement (Dailey 491). Chapter by chapter, another person's story is told, from the rape of Recy Taylor to the court case of Joan Little, while including the significance of Rosa Parks and various organizations in fighting for the victims of unjust brutality. The sole purpose of creating this novel was to discuss a topic no other historian has discussed before, because according to McGuire they have all been skipping over a topic that would change the view of the civil rights movement.

During the eighteenth century, an “immense religious revival swept across the Protestant world” (Murrin, p. 131), led by men such as George Whitefield, Solomon Stoddard, and Jonathan Edwards. These men as well as many others used new preaching styles in order to stir up the emotions of those listening. Their sermons used very specific detail regarding one’s salvation and unity with God. For some, the intense imagery would prompt a revelation, but for others it would generate fear. The sermons “replaced old, prepared homily with a spontaneous exhortation delivered by an untrained preacher, who now employed a mode of persuasion” (Cortes, Sept 21).

Ed combats this view with the idea that the point of discipleship is not information, but Christ-like transformation. The second “broken view” presented is the fact that we try to program discipleship. Ed infers that discipleship is so much more than a six-week course, and people are looking for relationships more than discipleship classes.
