While a reverend of the All Souls' Church in Washington, D.C., Arthur Powell Davies was also an advocate of civil rights through his sermons. Although not a communist himself, he was particularly outspoken against the Red Scare led by HUAC and spoke on other controversial topics. Eventually, he wrote a book in 1953 named after his 1950 sermon (included here) called "The Urge to Persecute.".
