Joseph Booth, Charles Domingo, and the Seventh Day Baptists in Northern Nyasaland, 1910–1912
This article attempts to assess more precisely the role of the Seventh Day Baptist movement in northern Nyasaland as a case study in African reactions to missions and to colonial rule. Internal factors contributing to the establishment of the movement included an intense desire among Africans to acquire a western education apart from European missionary control, and the competent leadership provided by Charles Domingo. External factors included the influence of Joseph Booth and the pattern of labour migration from Nyasaland to southern Africa.
