As a part of his duties, he preached the social gospel to poor immigrants in Winnipeg. This experience made him question classical Methodist approaches and the Church\u0026rsquo;s belief in the possibility of individual salvation. As a minister, he advocated for the importance of consideration towards the social context in which an individual lived and the introduction of tests for those entering the Church. An outcome of his continued work with immigrant families in Canada, \u003cem\u003eStrangers Within Our Gates: Or Coming Canadians\u003c/em\u003e served as a blueprint for Canada\u0026rsquo;s \u0026#39;Immigration Act\u0026#39; enacted soon after the publication of the book. In this book, Woodsworth provides a hierarchy of races and ethnicities based on their ability to assimilate into Canadian society. Those belonging to \u0026#39;prohibited classes\u0026#39; were deported and denied entry to Canada.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#000066\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Shaver Woodsworth, \u003cem\u003eStrangers Within Our Gates: Or Coming Canadians\u003c/em\u003e, 1909\u003c/strong\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nPublished by Missionary Society of the Methodist Church\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nFirst edition\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nCollection M HKA, Antwerp\u0026nbsp;\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\r\n\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nJames Shaver Woodsworth (1874-1942) staat bekend als een pionier in de Canadese sociaaldemocratische beweging en als predikant in de Methodistische Kerk. Een van zijn taken was het prediken van het sociale evangelie aan arme immigranten in Winnipeg. Door die ervaring begon hij te twijfelen aan de klassieke methodistische benaderingen en aan het geloof van de kerk in een mogelijke individuele redding. Als predikant pleitte hij ervoor aandacht te besteden aan de sociale context waarin een persoon leeft en verdedigde hij het invoeren van tests voor wie de kerk wil vervoegen. Zijn jarenlange werk met immigrantenfamilies in Canada leidde tot het boek \u003cem\u003eStrangers Within Our Gates: Or Coming Canadians\u003c/em\u003e, dat als blauwdruk diende voor de Canadese \u0026#39;Immigration Act\u0026#39; die kort na de publicatie van het boek werd goedgekeurd. In het boek geeft Woodsworth een hi\u0026euml;rarchie van rassen en etniciteiten op basis van hun vermogen om zich aan te passen aan de Canadese samenleving. Degenen die tot de \u0026#39;verboden klassen\u0026#39; behoorden, werden gedeporteerd en hen werd de toegang tot Canada geweigerd.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#000066\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Shaver Woodsworth, \u003cem\u003eStrangers Within Our Gates: Or Coming Canadians\u003c/em\u003e, 1909\u003c/strong\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nPublished by Missionary Society of the Methodist Church\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nFirst edition\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nCollection M HKA, Antwerp\u0026nbsp;\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[]}
