Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PRIMITIVE LAW AND THE NEGRO The psychology of large bodies of men is a surprisingly difficult topic and it is often true that we are inclined to seek the explanation of phenomena in too recent a period of human development. The truth seems to be that ideas prevail longer than customs, habits of dress or the ordinary economic processes of the community, and the ideas are the controlling factors. The attitude of the white man in this country toward the Negro is the fact perhaps of most consequence in the Negro problem. Why is it that still there lingers a certain unwillingness, one can hardly say more, in the minds of the best people to accept literally the platform of the Civil War? Why were the East St. Louis riots possible? I am afraid that a good many of the Negro race feel that there is a distinct personal prejudice or antipathy which can be reached or ought to be reached by logic, by reason, by an appeal to the principles of Christianity and of democracy. For myself I have always felt that if the premises of Christianity were valid at all, they placed the Negro upon precisely the same plane as the white man; that if the premises of democracy were true for the white man, they were true for the black. There should be no artificial distinction created by law, and what is much more to the purpose, by custom simply because the one man has a skin different in hue than the other. Nor should the law, [Pg 2] once having been made equal, be nullified by a lack of observance on the part of the whites nor be abrogated by tacit agreements or by further legislation subtly worded so as to avoid constitutional requirements. Each man and woman should be tested by his qualities and achievements and valued for what he is. I am sure no Negro asks for more, and yet I am afraid it is true, as many have complained, that in considerable sections of this country he receives far less

This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Negro History, 1919, Vol. 4 I am inclined to carry it back into the beginnings Of the race, back to the period Of pre-historic law and to that psy chological origin which antedates the records of history, in the strict sense, to that part of racial history indeed where men commonly act rather than write. The idea of pre historic law is that Obligation exists only between people of the same blood. Originally, charitable and decent con duct was expected only of people of the same family. Even though the family was by fact or fiction extended to include some hundreds or even thousands of people, the fact was still true. The law which bound a man limited his good conduct to a relatively few people. Outside the blood kin he was not bound. He must not steal from his relatives, but if he stole from another clan, his relatives deemed it virtue. If he committed murder, he should be punished within his clan, but protected, if possible, by his clan, if be murdered someone outside it. The blood kin became the definite limitation of the ideas of right and responsibility. This was true between whites. All whites we re not mem bers of any one man's blood kin. Palpably more true was this distinction between the Negro and the White man. The Negro could not by any fiction be represented as one of the blood kin. The Romans extended the legal citizenship to cover all white men in their dominions. It was the fictitious tie Of the blood kin, but its plausibility was due to the fact that they were all White. I do not remember to have seen any proof that the Negro inhabitants Of the Roman African colonies were considered Roman citizens. This is one of the Oldest psychological lines in human history; the rights which a man must con cede to another are limited by the relationship Of blood. Prima facie there could be no blood relationship between the Negro and the white man. There could therefore be no Obligation on the White man's part to the Negro in pre historic law. This notion has, I think, endured in many ways down to the present day as a subconscious, uncon scious factor behind many very vital notions and ideas. Is it not true that international law has been, more Often than not, a law between White men? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Geography and the Political Imaginary in the Novels of Toni Morrison written by Herman Beavers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Toni Morrison’s fiction as a sustained effort to challenge the dominant narratives produced in the white supremacist political imaginary and conceptualize a more inclusive political imaginary in which black bodies are valued. Herman Beavers closely examines politics of scale and contentious politics in order to discern Morrison's larger intent of revealing the deep structure of power relations in black communities that will enable them to fashion counterhegemonic projects. The volume explores how Morrison stages her ruminations on the political imaginary in neighborhoods or small towns; rooms, houses or streets. Beavers argues that these spatial and domestic geographies are sites where the management of traumatic injury is integral to establishing a sense of place, proposing these “tight spaces” as sites where narratives are produced and contested; sites of inscription and erasure, utterance and silence.
Download or read book Civil Rights Movement written by Jamie J. Wilson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives readers a comprehensive introduction to the topic of the Civil Rights Movement—arguably the most important political movement of the 20th century—and provides a road map for future study and historical inquiry. Civil Rights Movement provides a comprehensive reference guide to this momentous cultural evolution that starts in the 1930s. By beginning the story of how African Americans have long attempted to improve their lives while facing severe legislative, judicial, and political constraints, the author dispels the common misconception that black people only started their struggle to achieve equality in the mid 1950s. The book discusses all of the major campaigns of the 1950s and 1960s within the deep southern states, border states, and northern urban areas, thereby demonstrating that the African American struggle for equality was not solely in the South. Supplying a synthesis of the latest historical research and providing an accessible historical narrative of one of the most fascinating and inspiring periods of United States history, the book is appropriate for high-school students and general readers. Judicial victories significant to the movement and the shift in the portrayal of African Americans on television and in film are also addressed.

Excerpt: ... chapter ii The Royal Adventurers In England On account of the collapse of the king's cause at the death of Charles I, Prince Rupert, with his small fleet of royal vessels, was driven about from one part of the world to another. In 1562 he sought refuge in the Gambia River,1 where he listened to stories told by natives of rich gold mines in that region. For a number of years the Negroes had brought gold from the inland of Africa to the Dutch on the Gold Coast. There seemed every reason to believe that the source of this gold supply was none other than that described by the natives of the Gambia River, and that it might be discovered somewhere in that region. Prince Rupert was so much impressed with the possibility of finding these mines that his voyage to Guinea was still vivid in his memory when Charles ii assumed the throne in 1660. In the duke of York and other royal courtiers he found a group of willing listeners who determined to form a company for the purpose of sending an expedition to the Gambia to dig for gold. As early as October 3, 1660, the plans were formulated. Each member was required to invest at least 250 in the undertaking.2 On December 18, 1660, the king, who was pleased with the adventurers for having "undertaken so hopeful an enterprise," granted them a charter3 under the name of "The Company of the Royal Adventurers into Africa."4 1 At one time Prince Rupert had been governor of the African company founded in 1631.

This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical relationship between American urbanization, industrialization and the emergence of the civil rights movement is examined in this thesis in order to establish why the African-American Civil Rights Movement occurred. The book discusses many factors that were fundamental to causing the rise of the civil rights movement. It begins with a brief introduction to the African-American's political, economic and social conditions since the American Civil War and goes on to consider the effects of the two Great Black Migrations in which millions of black Americans moved to the big industrial cities and began to learn how to make effective use of their voting rights to protect their own interests. Finally the book examines the effect of the Second World War and also the role of the Supreme Court.
