Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the American Negro This study of the history of the American Negro endeavors simply to set forth the main facts about the subject that one might wish to know, and to supply in some measure the historical background for much that one reads to-day in newspapers and magazines. The book presupposes only an elementary knowledge of American history, but it does presuppose so much. The principle has been adhered to throughout that institutions are greater than men; hence little chronicle of individual achievement has been attempted, individuals being mentioned generally only when they had to do with significant movements. From the nature of the discussion the treatment could hardly be primarily original, and frequent citation is made to the conclusions of investigators along special lines. At the same time it is hoped that in more than one instance the presentation will be found to be substantially new. It has been the aim to deal with different phases of the the of the Negro - political, economic, social, religious, cultural - with some degree of proportion; but because of the great importance of education since the Civil War, special attention may not unnaturally seem to be given to this feature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Romance of the American Negro For a number of years it has been on my mind to write a book regarding the principal events that have occurred to the colored race since the beginning of the agitation against slavery, going on from thence to the great Rebellion, passing through that war, and also dealing with all subjects of great importance that have arrested our attention under our glorious freedom. At the same time it has occurred to me, as it has to many another writer, that my book would be far more interesting to the general reader, if I were to select a representative woman of our own race, and make her the mouthpiece of all I wished to say; in other words, to introduce the whole under the pleasing form of an historical romance, so that we might keep our heroine constantly before our eyes, and make her weave in a continuous tale of love, travel, war and peace, and thus portray the lady playing her own parts on that tremendous stage of Time that has been set forth for the gaze and astonishment of the whole country during the past fifty years. I hope those members of the general public who favor me by a perusal of my book will be pleased with my plan. "Peace hath her victories, no less renowned than war," and I have introduced into my book all the great advances that our race has made since the fall of Richmond, and, indeed, have brought things down to this year. The reader will find a number of things that are intended to introduce humor, and to brighten the darker portions of the story. And as some fault-finding person may say that I have overdrawn my heroine, and made her far more clever than she could ever have naturally been, I venture to affirm that such a charge can by no means be just, for we have women among us, and men, too, who are as intelligent and clever as can be found among any other race on the face of the earth. I believe my book will prove the truth of this assertion in those cases, at least, where the heroines and heroes of the colored race are mentioned in its pages by name. Beulah Jackson will therefore stand as a representative woman among our own people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Negro: His Past and Future After the preliminary meeting of the Tri-State Medical Society at Virginia Beach, Dr. P.I!. Barringer, of the University of Virginia, was requested by the acting secretary to prepare for the organization meeting of this Society to be held at Charlotte, X.C, a short talk on the raison d'etre for a new medical society in the South. In this address Dr. Barringer took the position that if this was to be conducted as other societies, there was no need for a new society, as there were sixieties in abundance already in existence which devoted themselves to the general needs of the profession, and that if another society was organized it. should be based upon new lines. He suggested that the entire first lav of each meeting of this new society should be devoted to some subject of broad general interest to the profession, such as the negro problem now facing the South, race mortality, inebriety, etc. This suggestion was well received and the negro problem was chosen as the subject for discussion at the next meeting at Charleston, S. C, and Dr. Barringer appointed leader of debate with the request that, he bring in a paper on the influence of heredity upon the negro. Many papers on the negro were read at this Charleston meeting and the subject freely discussed. By the unanimous vote of the Society it was ordered that the papers of Dr. P.B. Barringer and Dr.S. C.Baker should be printed and sent to all the medical societies in the South with the recommendation that they seriously consider the facts therein set forth. Paulus A. Irving, Secretary Tri-State Medical Society. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the American Negro, Vol. 6 This collection of biographies of prominent Negro men and women of Washington, D. C. Is Volume VI of the Biographical History of the American Negro. It does not pretend to include all the important men and women of the race in the Capital City, but it does include many of the noblest and best. Others equally prominent and useful, misunderstanding or disapprov ing of the work, have either ignored the request for data or flatly refused to furnish same. A book dealing with contemporary men and women can never be made quite complete or exhaustive, for, even while it is being made, some will move or pass away, while others will rise to take their places. We have sought to make the work, at least, representative, dealing with leaders in the edu cational, religious, professional and business life of the City. The Editor, who is also the Publisher, is grateful for the cordial spirit of co-operation shown by manv of those who were personally interviewed. The writer hopes sometime to bring out a book dealing with types of Washington Negroes (some unknown elsewhere in America), in which it will be proper 10 set down many interesting things which do not belong in a biographical work.

This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Redistribution of the American Negro South remained in 1860 almost entirely dependent upon agriculture, and held only 30% of the white population of the United States, but almost 95% of the black. The blacks then constituted more than one-third of its total population, the numbers stated in thousands being 000 whites and blacks. In 1920 the numbers were whites and blacks, the blacks consti tuting less than one-fourth of the total. Of the three divisions into which the black majority counties fell on my map, the Texas Black Belt was never of importance except as separating two of the white majority regions. It comprised only fifteen counties irregularly grouped in the vicinity of the City of Houston. The census of 1890 showed the white rate of increase to be the greater, and in the next decade this ran up to 43% against a black rate of 16. The census of 1910 showed a white gain of only but there was a black loss of seven counties had lost their black majorities, and in the district there were whites to blacks, the black percentage fall ing in twenty years from 61 to 52. The persistence of this trend down to 1920, which may be confidently assumed, though as yet we have only the State rates of increase'f 22% for the whites and 7% for the blacks - will have caus ed the complete disappearance of the division as such.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro in American History: Men and Women Eminent in the Evolution of the American of African Descent It is not my purpose to write a history of the United States nor of any period of that history. The Negro is so interwoven with the growth and development of the American Nation that a history of him as an important element, during little more than a century of which he has been a factor, becomes a task of peculiar difficulty. In the few pages that follow, mine is a much more simple and humble task - to indicate some of the more important points of the contact of the Nation and the Negro; to tell how the former in its evolution has been affected by the presence and the status of the latter; and to trace the transformation of the bondman and savage stolen from Africa to his freedom and citizenship in the United States, and to his recognition as such in the fundamental law, and by an increasing public sentiment of the country. The rise to eminence of representative men and women in both Church and State, as educators, statesmen, artists, and men of aft airs, will be cited for the emulation of our youth who are so liable from the scant mention of such men and women in the histories which they study and the books they read, to conclude that only the lowest and most menial avenues of service are open to them. Well nigh ten years ago Mrs. Charles Bartlett Dykes, formerly of the Leland-Stanford, Jr., University, while an instructor in a Summer School at the Hampton N. & A. Institute, gave this result of studies made with six hundred colored pupils in certain near-by primary schools.
