Download or read book Chapenga s White Man written by Alice Werner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chapenga's White Man: A Story of Central Africa This story might just as well be called Beck ford's Enfant Terrible, ' or 'imp of Darkness, ' for that matter, seeing that Chapenga was known to his master's friends by both these titles indifferently. But while plenty of people can be found to relate it from Beckford's point of view or that of his friends, the other side of the case is not so well represented, and it seems only fair to give Chapenga a chance. Chapenga's nationality is more or less a matter of conjecture. Beckford himself, un certain whether the boy was a Konde, Wanda, Henga, or something else, called him compre hensively a North Ender.' What seems tolerably clear is, that some time in the year 1886 a small and very skinny brown creature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This is the New England of Africa, whose enterprising sons are doggedly conquering the wilderness step by step, carrying with them Christianity and constitutional government. These pioneers, whether we call them English or Boer, have in their veins the blood of a common ancestry. Four hundred years ago Portuguese navigators and Romish monks established themselves along the whole coast-line of this continent, with the exception of the Mediterranean shore; but they brought with them an administration directed exclusively to the accumulation of gold and indiscriminate conversion of natives. They and their work have been swept away, leaving nothing but a few ginger-colored officials to remind the traveller that a government cannot live long unless its foundations are laid on principles of justice.

If, in this desire I should fail, I would feel that my labor had been in vain. I invoke the charitable criticism of all who may chance to read these pages.

Download or read book Early African American Classics written by Anthony Appiah and published by Bantam Classics. This book was released on 2008-05-20 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential one-volume collection brings together some of the most influential and significant works by African-American writers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Included herein are such classics as Frederick Douglass’s Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave (1845) and excerpts from W.E.B. DuBois’s The Souls of Black Folk (1903), Harriet A. Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl: Written by Herself (1861), Booker T. Washington’s Up from Slavery (1901), and James Weldon Johnson’s The Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man (1912). Whether read as records of African-American history, autobiography, or literature, these invaluable texts stand as timeless monuments to the courage, intellect, and dignity of those for whom writing itself was an act of rebellion—and whose voices and experiences would have otherwise been silenced forever. Edited and with an introduction by Anthony Appiah, who explains the distinctive American literary and cultural context of the time, this edition of Early African-American Classics remains the standard by which all similar collections will inevitably be compared.

Download or read book African American Classics in Criminology and Criminal Justice written by Shaun L Gabbidon and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2002 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This collection of writings is crucially important, in part, because it reminds us the theoretical paradigms of these and other African American scholars are excluded when crime, its causes, and its control are discussed by criminologists, criminal justice practitioners, and policy makers. To understand crime fully, the perspectives advanced by these scholars must become an integral part of discussions about who is a criminal and which public policies will best control crime." --From the forward by Anne Thomas Sulton, Ph.D, J.D. From W.E.B. Dubois through Lee Brown, this anthology provides a collection of the key articles in criminology and criminal justice written by black scholars. Available in a single volume for the first time, the articles collected in this book reflect the voices of African-American scholars and display the diversity of perspectives sought after in today's academic community. Crime in the African-American community is examined from social, economic and political perspectives, and the historical context of each article is provided by the editors. Spanning the 20th century, these works present a historical chronology of African-American views on crime and its control with theoretical perspectives that have often been tangential to mainstream scholarship.

Download or read book The White Man in Nigeria Classic Reprint written by George Douglas Hazzledine and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The White Man in Nigeria IT is said that more than half of the Government Grant-in aid of the cost of administering Northern Nigeria goes for the upkeep of the West African Frontier Force, without which the old and profitable West Coast Colonies would not be safe, and that the sum at present allotted to the Civil Administration is absurdly inadequate. If this is so, why cannot Government do the thing properly? It surely cannot be that there is any fear of the British public not willingly finding all the money that may be necessary. If it were only a question of the Coast Colonies, it would be highly advisable to retain control of Northern Nigeria as a buffer State, and that, too, if it were as barren as the Great Desert and as unpopulated as the Poles. Luckily, it is neither one nor the other. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The South African Native Problem Suggested Solution Classic Reprint written by Fred W. Bell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The South African Native Problem, Suggested Solution Such inherent hostility is not confined to places where the blacks hold sway. Mr. Bart Kennedy, the well-known author, who recently visited America on behalf of the London Daily Mail, after de elating that the negro question in Ameri ca was exactly of the same nature as the negro question in South Africa, says that the issue is simply which race is to domi nate, as the two races are too far apart to blend or to unite. Negroes hate white men, says Mr. Kennedy, and they have good reason to hate them, and they have as little love for white hypocrites who hold the negroes' country, while at the same time they deplore his wrongs, as they have for the whites who are more honest and frank in the matter. I have worked with negroes cutting sugar-cane in the fields of Lousiana, continues Mr. Kennedy, and there I came upon first hand proof of their feeling against white men. There was a sullen, smouldering, terrible resentment that flamed up when chance occurred. And this feeling was directed not only against the Americans of the South - it was directed against all men who were white. That there was strong reason for this is not to the point. The point is only that it exists, and that it is not to be placated by any political device. The negro means to fight when he can. And here in my present visit to America I again note the feeling. It has grown since I was last here. The negro is now becoming openly hostile to the white man. Mr. Meredith Townsend, writing on The Negro Problem in America, also shows that the whites and blacks in that country are becoming more antagonistic, and that the differences and dislikes which divide them are greater now than ever.
