This thesis documents the phenomenon of Joe Minter's African Village in America, a sprawling artistic creation that Mr. Minter employs as a vehicle for spreading the linked messages of the Gospel and the plight of African Americans. The African Village, in essence, becomes the stage through which Mr. Minter can physically engage the public in dialogue. Though Mr. Minter rejects the label of "preacher," he nonetheless insists that he created the African Village to enable him to talk. This thesis thus treats Mr. Minter as much more than an artist; it presents him as an evangelist, an educator, and an activist. Additionally, it views the African Village not merely as another example of a yard art installation, but as a materialized sermon that Mr. Minter created with the assistance of the divine. For Mr. Minter, the African Village fulfills its purpose only when visitors come into the space, for only when they visit can Mr. Minter spread his-and God's-message.
