Details
James Edward Lewis (aka "Los Angeles Noah") was an African-American preacher active in the 1920s and 1930s in Los Angeles, California. He built a number of large wooden arks according to biblical instruction, with the intention of sailing with a crew of missionaries to the West African country of Liberia, there establishing a colony or empire for African Americans fleeing the "wicked ways" of Jim Crow-era America. Over the years he captured the attention of the public and the press, but his vessels were never seaworthy or the ventures failed, one boat sinking within minutes after years of work. Nevertheless, he was known for his seemingly indomitable faith pursuing the unlikely scheme.
