Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from As We See It Books upon books have been written on the Negro question, but none have told the story as We see it. By We I mean the educated Negroes, those of cultured families of the third and fourth generations, those Negroes who see things as other men of their mental caliber see them, who feel the sting of race prejudice most keenly, and at whom the damnable laws of the South are aimed. In the books that have been written the Jim Crow Nigger is always in evidence and is always a welcome and fit companion for those who father the Jim Crow Law industry.

Download or read book The Negro and the Atlanta Exposition Classic Reprint written by Alice M. Bacon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro and the Atlanta Exposition It is an interesting and a most hopeful sign of the times, that an Exposition on the soil of the old Slave States and managed by Southern white men, should have contained the first adequate exhibit ever made in this country of the progress and status of the American negro. When the directors of the Cotton States Exposition set apart one building on the grounds for a negro exhibit, and invited the negroes Of the whole country to organize, for the purpose Of showing what they could do, it was a formal recognition Of the fact that the negro was an integral part Of the South, and that on his progress in the arts Of civilization depended in some measure the progress of the section that the Exposition was intended to represent. On the side of the white man it was a gracious and a friendly act, and one that tended to promote harmony between the two races. On the negro's side, it was a test Of his abilities in many ways. In order to understand fully the desirability Of such a test, a brief review is necessary of the effect upon his own mental attitude, and upon that of the whites North and South, of his thirty years of freedom and Opportunity.

Download or read book Righteous Propagation written by Michele Mitchell and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2005-10-12 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1877 and 1930--years rife with tensions over citizenship, suffrage, immigration, and "the Negro problem--African American activists promoted an array of strategies for progress and power built around "racial destiny," the idea that black Americans formed a collective whose future existence would be determined by the actions of its members. In Righteous Propagation, Michele Mitchell examines the reproductive implications of racial destiny, demonstrating how it forcefully linked particular visions of gender, conduct, and sexuality to collective well-being. Mitchell argues that while African Americans did not agree on specific ways to bolster their collective prospects, ideas about racial destiny and progress generally shifted from outward-looking remedies such as emigration to inward-focused debates about intraracial relationships, thereby politicizing the most private aspects of black life and spurring race activists to calcify gender roles, monitor intraracial sexual practices, and promote moral purity. Examining the ideas of well-known elite reformers such as Mary Church Terrell and W. E. B. DuBois, as well as unknown members of the working and aspiring classes, such as James Dubose and Josie Briggs Hall, Mitchell reinterprets black protest and politics and recasts the way we think about black sexuality and progress after Reconstruction.

Download or read book On Her Own Ground written by A'Lelia Bundles and published by Scribner. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soon to be a Netflix series starring Octavia Spencer, On Her Own Ground is the first full-scale biography of “one of the great success stories of American history” (The Philadelphia Inquirer), Madam C.J. Walker—the legendary African American entrepreneur and philanthropist—by her great-great-granddaughter, A’Lelia Bundles. The daughter of formerly enslaved parents, Sarah Breedlove—who would become known as Madam C. J. Walker—was orphaned at seven, married at fourteen, and widowed at twenty. She spent the better part of the next two decades laboring as a washerwoman for $1.50 a week. Then—with the discovery of a revolutionary hair care formula for black women—everything changed. By her death in 1919, Walker managed to overcome astonishing odds: building a storied beauty empire from the ground up, amassing wealth unprecedented among black women, and devoting her life to philanthropy and social activism. Along the way, she formed friendships with great early-twentieth-century political figures such as Ida B. Wells, Mary McLeod Bethune, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Booker T. Washington.

Download or read book Our Duty to the Negro Classic Reprint written by John Carlisle Kilgo and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Duty to the Negro He did not of his own motion make himself the issue of the civil war. Congressmen from the South and from New England discussed him, and worked themselves into a passion about him, which broke forth into a horrible contention of blood. In this contention he behaved himself with notable loyalty and service. He accepted the issues of the civil war as the settlement of a fear ful contention between the North and his Southern owners. He did not ask for the ballot. That was given to him by the white legislators of the nation. The use or misuse he may have made of the ballot was in obedience to the orders of those who passed the fifteenth amendment and made him a voter. In some of the Southern States the ballot has been taken from many of them, or, to be more accurate, constitutions have been so changed that only a small number of negroes can vote. This was done without their request, and those who have watched most closely the negroes to whom the ballot has been denied, must admit that they seem about as well satisfied not to vote as they were to vote. He had no choice in the matter of fixing his primary ideas of civilization. Beginning as a slave, he submitted to the ideas of his owner in those matters as well as in industrial matters. Under the laws of servitude which forced him to carry out the will of his owner, by a natural process he became an imitator of his master, and this easily became the method of his primary educa tion in civilization.

Download or read book Lectures and Addresses on the Negro in the South Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures and Addresses on the Negro in the South We are confronted today by the stubborn fact of some ten mil lions of negroes, who are increasing rather than dying out; who are an important factor in the economic life of America, and particularly of the South; who thus far have not proved assim ilable, either politically or socially - and who, therefore, consti tute a problem. As Southern men, we may well take counsel of ourselves, as to our attitude and responsibilities toward these peo ple and toward the problems created by their presence. Toward a great many human questions I may say that I am fatalistic, rather than sentimental, in my attitude. It is rather the practical aspects of history which appeal to me. I see no di vine plan in the bringing of the negro race to America. I have the utmost respect for those who hold to such a belief. But I cannot share it. I think the case was simply one of a strong people enslaving a weaker, for purely selfish but wholly normal economic purposes. This View serves only to increase the burden of responsibility resting upon the shoulders and the conscience of the white man. I have heard it argued that this contention of present white responsibility based upon the fact of slavery is un sound; that the damages are too remote. A knowledge of the history of the'origin of negro slavery in America suggests that nothing is clear-er or more direct than this responsibility. It is a responsibility which embraces every one of the great maritime powers of Europe in the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth cen turies; England, Spain, France, Portugal and Holland. And most surely it rests also upon America, and bears most heavily upon those of us who are closest to the burden. What are the salient facts of the case?

This book was released on 2017-01-19 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the Origin, Habits, &C. Of the African Race: Incidental to the Propriety of Having Nothing to Do With Negroes; Addressed to the Good People of the United States Dr. Smith says also that many centuries occurred to blacken the negroes! Then in what age of the world, from the build ing of Babel to the days of Moses, did the word Ethiopian, (signifying black) become expressive of a race. The centuries from Babel to that time were not enough to have made the people of Upper Egypt or Midian, (fanned by the cool wind just from Asia on the east) black. It is impossible to bow with deference to groundless assertions. And since there is in nature so many contradictions to the essay of Dr. Smith, I shall conclude that his reasonings are untenable, and that the negroes were blackened by some dispensation from on high, as a punishment.
