Friendly principle of brotherhood -- Let's do away with walls: the AFSC's Interracial Section and race work in the United States, 1924-1929 -- Bridging race and peace: the AFSC in good times and bad, 1927-1931 -- Intelligent leadership in the cause of racial brotherhood: Quakers, social science, and the AFSC's interracial activism in the 1930s -- Refugees from abroad and at home: the hostel method and victims of war -- From race relations to community relations -- Race and reconciliation at mid-century.
'Quaker Brotherhood' is an extensive study of the American Friends Service Committee's interracial activism in the first half of the 20th century, filling a major gap in scholarship on the Quakers' race relations work from the AFSC's founding in 1917 to the beginnings of the civil rights movement in the early 1950s.
