Book The Industrial History of the Negro Race of the United States  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Industrial History of the Negro Race of the United States Classic Reprint written by Giles B. Jackson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial History of the Negro Race of the United States Every race has its history written by its own members. This, to our mind, is a special reason why the Negro should have a history of himself, written by members of his own race, and that history should be taught in the schools of the youth of the race. As history can be best gleaned from his industrial progress, the writers of this book feel that a history, showing the strides made by the race along industrial lines, would prove most beneficial, not only to the adult, but especially to the youth. The information furnished through the medium of this book could not be obtained through any other source or combination of sources; for the reason that the authors have spent large sums of money and labored for more than four years, to secure it. Giles B. Jackson has been engaged for a number of years in the practice of law among his people, and in this capacity has come in contact with every element of his people, and is thus well prepared to speak of them from close contact. He was the promoter of the Jamestown Negro Exhibit, whose successful history is known to all the world. In this arduous duty he traveled from one end of the country to the other, and met the leading men and women in their own localities, studying the industrial history and progress of his people, and thus it can be readily seen he is well prepared to speak upon many phases of this great subject.

Book Black Reconstruction in America  The Oxford W  E  B  Du Bois

Download or read book Black Reconstruction in America The Oxford W E B Du Bois written by W. E. B. Du Bois and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 1134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W. E. B. Du Bois was a public intellectual, sociologist, and activist on behalf of the African American community. He profoundly shaped black political culture in the United States through his founding role in the NAACP, as well as internationally through the Pan-African movement. Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period. Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. Black Reconstruction in America tells and interprets the story of the twenty years of Reconstruction from the point of view of newly liberated African Americans. Though lambasted by critics at the time of its publication in 1935, Black Reconstruction has only grown in historical and literary importance. In the 1960s it joined the canon of the most influential revisionist historical works. Its greatest achievement is weaving a credible, lyrical historical narrative of the hostile and politically fraught years of 1860-1880 with a powerful critical analysis of the harmful effects of democracy, including Jim Crow laws and other injustices. With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by David Levering Lewis, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.

Book The Tragedy of the Negro in America

Download or read book The Tragedy of the Negro in America written by Peter Thomas Stanford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tragedy of the Negro in America: A Condensed History of the Enslavement, Sufferings, Emancipation, Present Condition and Progress of the Negro Race in the United States of America This volume is intended to compress, within the narrowest limits, an account of Negro life in the United States of America. I have consulted the most reliable histories, and made personal inquiries with great care, and can conscientiously present the story as trustworthy. No desire has been felt about gratifying the spirit of any race, but fairness to both white and black has been carefully kept in sight; the Oppressors of the Negro have been looked at from every point of view in the hope of finding some excuse for their cruelty. In my work as a Christian teacher I have natur ally felt the deepest sympathy for the poor and needy, and devoted my chief care to them. I was born a slave, and lived for several years with the poorest of the poor, and can never forget my own poverty and sufferings; to help the down-trodden is a desire which never leaves me.

Book Lectures and Addresses on the Negro in the South  Classic Reprint

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?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Progress of the Negro Race The whites increase much more rapidly than our people in the South, but white persons of native parentage there only ih creased per cent the last decade and the colored people ia creased per cent. A much larger proportion of our children under one year of age die than among the whites. We have in the South men of voting age, one-half of whom can read and write. It is generally thought that our people never move about trying to better their condition. Since 1850 a mil lion and a half of our people have been migrating from one State to another, but almost altogether in the South, the largest por tion going further South.

Book The Negro Problem

Download or read book The Negro Problem written by J. R. Ralls and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro Problem: An Essay on the Industrial, Political and Moral Aspects of the Negro Race in the Southern States as Presented Under the Late Amendments to the Federal Constitution While it is not within the purview of our purpose to de fend the institution of slavery, as it existed in the South ern States, either upon moral or political grounds, yet we would not vindicate the truth of history, in passing over in silence the real authors of an institution that has been the theme of such bitter invective at the hands of their intol erant and hypocritical descendants. Massachusetts and Connecticut were among the first colonies to introduce African slavery upon their soil, and conducted 'the new en terprise with more interest and zeal than any of their sister colonies. Massachusetts in particular had an addition al incentive to stimulate her to engage in the slave traffic; for, besides the demand for the African as a laborer to till her soil, she enjoyed a monopoly of the shipping in terest among the colonies, and did not stop at that early day to consider the horrors of the middle passage, but at once fitted out her ship for the coast of Africa, and con tinned this species of merchandise as long as she could find a market for the so-called human chattels. Virginia, and other more Southern colonies, entered an earnest re monstrance against the slave trade, and raised an issue with the New England colonies against its continuance, which was not met in a spirit of compromise by those men, whose descendants, eighty years later, began a sectional war to overturn an institution their fathers had been mainly instrumental in setting up.
