Book African Colonization  Classic Reprint

Download or read book African Colonization Classic Reprint written by John H. B. Latrobe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from African Colonization There are, in the United States, two races, the white and the colored. Brought from Africa, origi nally, as slaves, the progenitors of the last have trans mitted, even to the free of their decsendants, the memories and the associations of servitude, which cannot be shaken off while a portion of the same people, still in bondage, suggests, everlastingly, the history and the degradation of the past. Before Emancipation commenced, the relations of the races, as a matter of feeling, were probably of rare discus sion. When the first ship-load of slaves was landed, under colonial rule, in the Chesapeake, the wisest of the Virginia adventurers never dreamed that a day would come, when the descendants of the captives would be the alumni of colleges, distinguished mem bers of the liberal professions, and filling, because fit to fill, political offices of the highest civilization.

Download or read book 1619 written by James Horn and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary year in which American democracy and American slavery emerged hand in hand Along the banks of the James River, Virginia, during an oppressively hot spell in the middle of summer 1619, two events occurred within a few weeks of each other that would profoundly shape the course of history. In the newly built church at Jamestown, the General Assembly--the first gathering of a representative governing body in America--came together. A few weeks later, a battered privateer entered the Chesapeake Bay carrying the first African slaves to land on mainland English America. In 1619, historian James Horn sheds new light on the year that gave birth to the great paradox of our nation: slavery in the midst of freedom. This portentous year marked both the origin of the most important political development in American history, the rise of democracy, and the emergence of what would in time become one of the nation's greatest challenges: the corrosive legacy of racial inequality that has afflicted America since its beginning.
