So Heavenly Bound, No Earthly Good

So Heavenly Bound, No Earthly Good Order Description completing a portion of the research for this paper. This research should be completed from two works. 1) The Souls of Black Folk by W.E.B. Dubois , and 2) The Fire of Next Time by James Baldwin. making the argument that the church for Dubois and Baldwin didn't do enough to in terms of addressing and seeking social reform in matters of the racial injustices that Blacks were accustomed to in their time. In this way it seems that the church was more satisfied with being saved and on their way to heaven and because of this it didn't wish to get involved with the societal problems of racism and the injustices of African Americans. I believe both Du Bois and Baldwin had a fond relationship with the church but the more they became enlightened, they saw the church as problematic in these areas, speak to this in this research. I will conduct further research bring in two other authors into this conversation. However, the research on Du Bois and Baldwin on these particular works mentioned are the main focus of the whole research paper. The chapters in each of these works in both of these works are as follow, Chapter 10: Of the Faith of the Fathers in The Souls of Black Folk and the Second Essay: Down at the Cross in The Fire of Next Time in James Baldwin's work.
