Book The End of White World Supremacy

Download or read book The End of White World Supremacy written by Roderick Bush and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-28 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The End of White World Supremacy explores a complex issue—integration of Blacks into White America—from multiple perspectives: within the United States, globally, and in the context of movements for social justice. Rod Bush locates himself within a tradition of African American activism that goes back at least to W.E.B. Du Bois. In so doing, he communicates between two literatures—world systems analysis and radical Black social movement history—and sustains the dialogue throughout the book. Bush explains how racial troubles in the U.S. are symptomatic of the troubled relationship between the white and dark worlds globally. Beginning with an account of white European dominance leading to capitalist dominance by White America, The Endof White World Supremacy ultimately wonders whether, as Myrdal argued in the 1940s, the American creed can provide a pathway to break this historical conundrum and give birth to international social justice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racial divide in America is hinged upon the precarious relations between the two communities—the dominant Whites American and the marginalised Black Americans. Behind every push-back against the Blacks, even after five decades of Civil Rights Movement, is an unshakeable belief in the idea White Supremacy. Read this book to understand why the Black Americans are indignant, angry and raring to dismantle the structures of epistemic racism. This book is adjusted for readability on all devices and follows the perceived threat of White Supremacists against the growing power of the "coloured people." In the current scenarios it has assumed a historic significance in understanding the White mentality and their long-held fears.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an Introduction by Madison Grant, Chairman, New York Zoological Society. A far-seeing survey of race and history, T. Lothrop Stoddard's epic 1921 work did not refer to a belief that whites should rule over other races, but merely that, as he put it, a man who in 1914 looked at a world map "got one fundamental impression: the overwhelming preponderance of the white race in the ordering of the world's affairs." It was this dominance, Stoddard said, which was coming to an end because of the massive demographic swings which he foresaw over the coming decades-just one of the many accurate predictions made in this book which have allowed it to stand the test of time. Starting with an overview of the different races of the world and their traditional homelands, Stoddard pointed out how their technological backwardness allowed what he called the "white flood" to colonize all four corners of the earth. However, he continued, the transfer of European technology, learning and know-how to the nonwhite races of the earth had now empowered them, and as a result, the era of white domination was surely coming to an end. The advent of the First World War, he said, had "shattered white solidarity" and inflicted huge damage upon the European people, weakening them in the coming struggle for survival. He warned that any policy which promoted open borders, and unrestricted immigration, would lead to the final and irreparable destruction of any European nation. He also foretold that the massive population boom of the Third World would sooner or later come pressing against all white nations' borders-driven forward by the Third World's inability to maintain order and progress, and the offer of a better life under white rule which they claimed to dislike so much. He was also one of the few to recognize the growing threat of militant Islam, and warned in this book that it would become a major world force. Stoddard argued that the only way to avoid a worldwide racial catastrophe was to educate people on the issue of race and the need for racial improvement through eugenics. Finally, he concluded that the only way to achieve racial peace was to abandon the concept of white supremacy completely, saying: "We whites will have to abandon our tacit assumption of permanent domination over Asia, while Asiatics will have to forego their dreams of migration to white lands and penetration of Africa and Latin America. Unless some such understanding is arrived at, the world will drift into a gigantic race-war-and genuine race-war means war to the knife. Such a hideous catastrophe should be abhorrent to both sides."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Whoever will take the time to read and ponder Mr. Lothrop Stoddard's book on 'The Rising Tide of Color' must realize that our race problem here in the United States is only a phase of a race issue that the whole world confronts." -President Warren G. Harding, October, 1921 "The first successful attempt to present a scientific explanation of the worldwide epidemic of unrest." -The Saturday Evening Post "In a preface by the author of 'The Passing of the Great Race' a tear is once more shed over the clouded future of the noble Nordic. Lesser breeds like Italians, a large proportion of Frenchmen, and of course the race that produced Mendelssohn walk with bent heads, you will remember at the procession, knowing their insufficiency....It is no bad thing to have a popularly written volume that will attract the attention of the unthinking to the changed and changing situation in the Orient. But it must not be allowed to assume the mantle of work of science." -Asia and the Americas, Volume 20, 1920 "Mr. Stoddard contends that white world-supremacy is in danger on account of the weakening of the white races by the war." -Quarterly Bulletin of the Providence Public Library, Volumes 17-18, January, 1919 "Mr. Stoddard has written a brilliant and highly suggestive survey and analysis of the present-day relations of the White and Colored races throughout the world." -Review of Reviews "Urged with an insistency, an elaboration of detail, a vigor of phrase, which are calculated to startle the most indifferent reader. In a word, the supremacy of the white race, and with it the existence of civilization, is imperiled. First, the Russo-Japanese War shattered the age-long tradition of white invincibility; then the World War advertised to the colored races the end of white solidarity. 'Through the bazaars of Asia ran the sibilant whisper, 'The East will see the West to bed!' And this is only a part of the story. Within the white race itself that branch of it which is of highest genetic worth, whose constructive genius has always been the germinal source of civilization wherever it has appeared, is today threatened with submergence by less worthy stocks. For when two racial stocks come into competition, it is the better which is finally supplanted; or if they amalgamate, it is again the less valuable stock which prevails in the offspring....High appreciation is due Mr. Stoddard's dramatic presentation of the most important problem of today or tomorrow." -The Unpartizan Review, Volume 14, 1920 CONTENTS Introduction by Madison Grant PART I THE RISING TIDE OF COLOR CHAPTER I.

Download or read book Pineapple Culture written by Gary Y. Okihiro and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plucked from tropical America, the pineapple was brought to European tables and hothouses before it was conveyed back to the tropics, where it came to dominate U.S. and world markets. Pineapple Culture is a dazzling history of the world's tropical and temperate zones told through the pineapple's illustrative career. Following Gary Y. Okihiro's enthusiastically received Island World: A History of Hawai`i and the United States, Pineapple Culture continues to upend conventional ideas about history, space, and time with its provocative vision. At the center of the story is the thoroughly modern tale of Dole's "Hawaiian" pineapple, which, from its island periphery, infiltrated the white, middle-class homes of the continental United States. The transit of the pineapple brilliantly illuminates the history and geography of empires—their creations and accumulations; the circuits of knowledge, capital, labor, goods, and the cultures that characterize them; and their assumed power to name, classify, and rule over alien lands, peoples, and resources.

Download or read book The Myth of Race written by Robert Wald Sussman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-06 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological races do not exist—and never have. This view is shared by all scientists who study variation in human populations. Yet racial prejudice and intolerance based on the myth of race remain deeply ingrained in Western society. In his powerful examination of a persistent, false, and poisonous idea, Robert Sussman explores how race emerged as a social construct from early biblical justifications to the pseudoscientific studies of today. The Myth of Race traces the origins of modern racist ideology to the Spanish Inquisition, revealing how sixteenth-century theories of racial degeneration became a crucial justification for Western imperialism and slavery. In the nineteenth century, these theories fused with Darwinism to produce the highly influential and pernicious eugenics movement. Believing that traits from cranial shape to raw intelligence were immutable, eugenicists developed hierarchies that classified certain races, especially fair-skinned “Aryans,” as superior to others. These ideologues proposed programs of intelligence testing, selective breeding, and human sterilization—policies that fed straight into Nazi genocide. Sussman examines how opponents of eugenics, guided by the German-American anthropologist Franz Boas’s new, scientifically supported concept of culture, exposed fallacies in racist thinking. Although eugenics is now widely discredited, some groups and individuals today claim a new scientific basis for old racist assumptions. Pondering the continuing influence of racist research and thought, despite all evidence to the contrary, Sussman explains why—when it comes to race—too many people still mistake bigotry for science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller This terrific new book…[explores] the ‘notion of whiteness,’ an idea as dangerous as it is seductive." —Boston Globe Telling perhaps the most important forgotten story in American history, eminent historian Nell Irvin Painter guides us through more than two thousand years of Western civilization, illuminating not only the invention of race but also the frequent praise of “whiteness” for economic, scientific, and political ends. A story filled with towering historical figures, The History of White People closes a huge gap in literature that has long focused on the non-white and forcefully reminds us that the concept of “race” is an all-too-human invention whose meaning, importance, and reality have changed as it has been driven by a long and rich history of events.

Book Satan in the Dance Hall

Download or read book Satan in the Dance Hall written by Ralph G. Giordano and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2008-10-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satan in the Dance Hall explores the overwhelming popularity of social dancing and its close relationship to America's rapidly changing society in the 1920s. The book focuses on the fiercely contested debate over the morality of social dancing in New York City, led by moral reformers and religious leaders like Rev. John Roach Straton. Fed by the firm belief that dancing was the leading cause of immorality in New York, Straton and his followers succeeded in enacting municipal regulations on social dancing and moral conduct within the more than 750 public dance halls in New York City. Ralph G. Giordano conveys an easy to read and full picture of life in the Jazz Age, incorporating important events and personalities such as the Flu Epidemic, the Scopes Monkey Trial, Prohibition, Flappers, Gangsters, Texas Guinan, and Charles Lindbergh, while simultaneously describing how social dancing was a hugely prominent cultural phenomenon, one closely intertwined with nearly every aspect of American society fromthe Great War to the Great Depression. With a bibliography, an index, and over 35 photos, Satan in the Dance Hall presents an interdisciplinary study of social dancing in New York City throughout the decade.

Book They All Made Peace     What Is Peace

Download or read book They All Made Peace What Is Peace written by Jonathan Conlin and published by Gingko Library. This book was released on 2023-07-05 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne from multiple historical, economic, and social perspectives. The last of the post-World War One peace settlements, the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne departed from methods used in the Treaty of Versailles and took on a new peace-making initiative: a forced population exchange that affected one and a half million people. Like its German and Austro-Hungarian allies, the defeated Ottoman Empire had initially been presented with a dictated peace in 1920. In just two years, however, the Kemalist insurgency enabled Turkey to become the first sovereign state in the Middle East, while the Greeks, Armenians, Arabs, Egyptians, Kurds, and other communities previously under the Ottoman Empire sought their own forms of sovereignty. Featuring historical analysis from multiple perspectives, They All Made Peace, What is Peace? considers the Lausanne Treaty and its legacy. Chapters investigate British, Turkish, and Soviet designs in the post-Ottoman world, situate the population exchanges relative to other peacemaking efforts, and discuss the economic factors behind the reallocation of Ottoman debt and the management of refugee flows. Further chapters examine Kurdish, Arab, Iranian, Armenian, and other communities that were refused formal accreditation at Lausanne, but which were still forced to live with the consequences, consequences that are still emerging, one hundred years on.

Book Risk  A Study Of Its Origins  History And Politics

Download or read book Risk A Study Of Its Origins History And Politics written by Matthias Beck and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a period of several centuries, the academic study of risk has evolved as a distinct body of thought, which continues to influence conceptual developments in fields such as economics, management, politics and sociology. However, few scholarly works have given a chronological account of cultural and intellectual trends relating to the understanding and analysis of risks. Risk: A Study of its Origins, History and Politics aims to fill this gap by providing a detailed study of key turning points in the evolution of society's understanding of risk. Using a wide range of primary and secondary materials, Matthias Beck and Beth Kewell map the political origins and moral reach of some of the most influential ideas associated with risk and uncertainty at specific periods of time. The historical focus of the book makes it an excellent introduction for readers who wish to go beyond specific risk management techniques and their theoretical underpinnings, to gain an understanding of the history and politics of risk.
