Black priests are in charge at only 2.1% of ECUSA's 7,347 domestic congregations. Those congregations have a total of 46,400 communicants (2.5% of the communicants of the Episcopal Church in the domestic dioceses).
This graph is based on data found in A Report on Episcopal Church in the United States Prepared by C. Kirk Hadaway for the Office of Congregational Development of the Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society of the Episcopal Church, April 2002.
| Bishops | 4.0% |

| Priests | 82.7% |

Black clergy fare best in their share of the House
of Bishops:

| Deacons | 3.9% |
Tom McCann reported in the Chicago Tribune for September 2, 2002 that the Roman Catholic Church "has 13 black bishops and 350 black Catholic priests in the United States"! Compare that with the 600 black priests and 24 black bishops in the Episcopal Church. There are about 60 million Roman Catholics in the United States and only 2.4 million Episcopalians.

The Given the likelihood of deaths of the ordinands from earlier more than from recent years, we may actually have had a decrease in ordinations of black clergy over this half century.

indicates one of the 11 states of the
Confederacy. All 11
are in the 17 states with the worst record
of deployment of Black priests in charge of Episcopal congregations.
Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan and
Missouri also hold that unenviable distinction.
Note, in the table I have used the population totals for The Diocese of Washington, instead of for the District alonge. The diocese is made up of the District of Columbia and four Maryland Counties. It was carved out of the Diocese of Maryland in the 1890s. Population figures and percentages are from the census for 2000.
| Jurisdiction | Population | White | Black |
|---|---|---|---|
| District of Columbia | 572,059 | 176,194 | 343,235 |
| Prince George County | 805,515 | 217,489 | 505,058 |
| Montgomery County | 873,341 | 565,925 | 131,874 |
| Charles County | 120,546 | 82,574 | 31,463 |
| St. Mary's County | 86,211 | 70,348 | 11,983 |
| Totals | 2,457,672 | 1,112,530 | 1,023,614 |
Thus. in the Diocese of Washington, blacks are 41.6% of the population and on 8.3% of the clergy in charge, or a difference of -33.3%
The table uses the population totals for Maryland excluding the four Maryland counties computed as part of the Diocese of Washington.
I regret that I do not have U.S. population data for dioceses in states with more than one diocese, nor do I have data regarding black communicants. A church that cares about persons will make every effort to find them. I am disappointed that we have not yet even thought it important to count those whom we are excluding or deploying unequally.
