Methodists have been known for their radical embrace of God’s love for all. We proudly claim the spiritual legacies of greats such as Freeborn Garrettson, Sojourner Truth, Zenro Hirota, Harriett Tubman, Ida B. Wells, William Apess, Jovita Idar, and so many more! 

The resources on this page provide timelines, biographies, videos, oral histories, and primary source documents from these denominational icons.
