James Baldwin does not belong to any religion and does not have a place of worship. Though he was the stepson of a laborer and Baptist preacher David Baldwin.
What religion was James Baldwin and where did he worship?
James Baldwin was not religious. He began his life as a preacher at a very young age, but, in his words, he felt like working for a theater, seeing everything behind the scenes, realizing the deception. He abandoned religion before the age of 20.
However, James Baldwin was born James Arthur Jones to Emma Berdis Jones on August 2, 1924, at Harlem Hospital in New York City. He rarely wrote or spoke of his mother. When he did, he made clear that he admired and loved her, often through reference to her loving smile.
James Baldwin moved several times in his early life but always to different addresses in Harlem. Harlem was still a mixed-race area of the city in the incipient days of the Great Migration; tenements and penury featured equally throughout the urban landscape.
