Praying in schools used to be a regular activity up until 37 years ago. Students had time for prayer and Bible study every day. It wasn’t until people started to say that it was against the First Amendment, that prayer in school was abolished. The Author Chapman shows his bitter distress by the lynching of a black man in Coatesville, Pennsylvania in August 1911. Chapman decided to go there himself a year later and deliver an address at a prayer meeting. Only two people attended the meeting. Chapman was in awe and rather upset at what happened to the man. He was chained down stuck with pitchforks and burned alive while onlookers from near and far watched. No one tried to stop what took place.
