(Delivered July 16, 1961), and "Why Fight the Civil War Again? - Civil War's Unfinished Business: Complete Emancipation" (Delivered July 2, 1961) by the Rev. Lewis A. [Allen] McGee at the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles… and published in mimeographed print form as the September 1961 Sermon of the Month by the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles. The first Sermon ("Where Are We Going?"), a stapled pamphlet, measures 7" by 8-1/2" and contains 12 pages including front and rear covers. The second Sermon ("Why Fight the Civil War Again?") is laid in, as issued, measuring 8-1/2" by 14" and containing three-and-one-half pages of text. Also laid in is a half-page slip from the Rev. Stephen H. Fritchman which reads, "LEWIS AND MARCELLA McGEE leave for Chico, California, September 1, 1961, with the affectionate good wishes of the staff and congregation which have enjoyed three and a half years friendship and ministry from two of what old-timers in orthodox churches would call 'the Lord's anointed' and we call 'cherished exemplars of the good life' - These two Sermons of the Month by Mr. McGee 'Why Fight the Civil War Again?' and 'Where Are We Going?' offer friends near and far a sampling of the mind and heart of our Associate Minister shared with us these past forty-two months." Previously, but lightly, folded. The REV. LEWIS A. [ALLEN] McGEE (1893-1979) was one of the first African-American ministers of the Unitarian Church. Active in the Civil Rights Movement, he was the Associate Minister of the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles from 1958 to 1961 before becoming the Minister of the Chico Unitarian Fellowship in 1961.
