Influence of evangelicalism of racial relations in the U. S South:

The Evangelicalism has improved Racial Relations in U. S by National Association of Evangelicals. They urge "Evangelical Christians" to support Civil Legislation to promote equal opportunities for all Americans. They preach the "whole counsel of God" which tells about the Sin of Racism.

They work with the local churches and encourage the partnerships between black and white churches. They believe that Racism can be ended by preaching of the Gospel. By Public Programs, Publications and and Employment Practices they believe they can improve Racial Relations among the people of U. S.
