Book excerpt: Excerpt from White Man's Africa White man's africa is a very small portion of the great Dark Continent, stretching from the Cape of Good Hope for a thousand miles or so northeastward along the Indian Ocean.

This is the New England of Africa, whose enterprising sons are doggedly conquering the wilderness step by step, carrying with them Christianity and constitution al government.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A White Woman in Central Africa During the last few years, Africa has been very much in the minds of people everywhere; especially has it been in the minds of the British people, therefore I hope it will be thought that no apology is necessary for my writing this brief account of a lady's journey from the mouth of the Zambesi to the great Lake Tanganyika, which divides German East Africa from the Congo Free State. The journey was full of interest to me, and, having been undertaken through love of travel, and for the purposes of observation only, has presented to me aspects and incidents of native life in British Central Africa which, I hope, will interest and amuse those who have neither time nor inclination to travel so far.

Download or read book The Classics in Black and White written by Kenneth W. Goings and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following emancipation, African Americans continued their quest for an education by constructing schools and colleges for Black students, mainly in the U.S. South, to acquire the tools of literacy, but beyond this, to enroll in courses in the Greek and Latin classics, then the major curriculum at American liberal arts colleges and universities. Classically trained African Americans from the time of the early U.S. republic had made a link between North Africa and the classical world; therefore, from almost the beginning of their quest for a formal education, many African Americans believed that the classics were their rightful legacy. The Classics in Black and White is based extensively on the study of course catalogs of colleges founded for Black people after the Civil War by Black churches, largely White missionary societies and White philanthropic organizations. Kenneth W. Goings and Eugene O’Connor uncover the full extent of the colleges’ classics curriculums and showcase the careers of prominent African American classicists, male and female, and their ultimately unsuccessful struggle to protect the liberal arts from being replaced by Black conservatives and White power brokers with vocational instruction such as woodworking for men and domestic science for women. This move to eliminate classics was in large part motivated by the very success of the colleges’ classics programs. As Goings and O’Connor’s survey of Black colleges’ curriculums and texts reveals, the lessons they taught were about more than declensions and conjugations—they imparted the tools of self-formation and self-affirmation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters on the Relation of the White and African Races in the United States: Showing the Necessity of the Colonization of the Latter, Addressed to the Representative Men of the Nation To the Honorable Messrs. Lincoln, Douglas, Bell and Breckinridge, Gentlemen: We respectfully ask your consideration of the matter and measure named in the following letters and papers. You are by choice the representative men of the several sections of our common country, and one or the other of you will have been chosen as the future magistrate of the nation, before these letters can be published, as they are not intended for general circulation or party purposes, but for private use, placed at your service as an aid to reflection on the most dangerous and troublesome question of our time; and for the purpose of renewing the prayer and request made through twelve years last past, and placed before three successive administrations; hoping that circumstances will justify the incoming administration to look the question disturbing the peace of the country calmly in the face, and that steps will be taken to dispose of it before it becomes of unmanageable magnitude. We claim no originality for the measures proposed, they have been the subjects of reflection and partial action with American statesmen from the foundation of the Republic; we have only attempted to take up their plans and reflections and embody them in the form of petition.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hill of Goodbye: The Story of a Solitary White Woman's Life in Central Africa When I sit alone, lost to things external, I see sights that few can. Marvellous rocky peaks, mysterious depths, and familiar dark figures, whose eyes flash with passion or mirth, pass before me. I hear sounds - soft childish voices, weird beating of drums and woeful yells, and the clear call of a bugle. It is the "lipenga." The flag is lowered. The dark figures cease their work. The sun slips behind the long line of purple hills. The small creatures awake in the grass - click, click, all night. It is quite dark. Can I make it light to you? Can I make you see the sights that haunt me, and hear the sounds that thrill me even now? I would that I could.
