Book excerpt: Excerpt from Characteristics of the Southern Negro In my boyhood I often spent a day or night with some neighbor boy, and as white boys in those days were fond of going out to the cabins to hear the negroes talk I, like the others, saw into a great many negro cabins and had good opportuni ties for studying negro character and habits. In those days most of the negroes had more liberty without freedom than they now have with freedom. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Characteristics of the Southern Negro It is strange how knowingly people who have but a glancing acquaintance with the negroes of the South, can write up their character. Various prominent writers from the North occasionally come South, visit Booker T. Washington, Bishop Cottrell, a colored bishop, and a few others, and then write glowing accounts of the progress and development of the negroes. Their reports remind me of some of the reports of our early missionaries to Africa, who, in their zeal, gave most encouraging statements of the spread of the Gospel amongst the benighted negroes, and afterward the results of their labors could no more be traced than could their tracks in the desert sands. In the North American Review of June, 1908, Mr. Andrew Carnegie, one of America's strongest thinkers, wrote most knowingly and unlearnedly about the wonderful progress of the Southern negroes. Such writers of judgment do the South a great injury without being aware of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Black Man of the South, and the Rebels: Or, the Characteristics of the Former, and the Recent Outrages of the Latter It is not the purpose of the writer of these pages to portray a favorable view only of those whose claims are here advocated. The dark shades, as well as the light ones, in the character of the freedmen will be painted; not with a more sombre hue than the facts will justify, nor with a disposition to magnify the faults of those so recently existing only as brutes, in the eyes of the law, and of public opinion South, but with an earnest desire to draw the attention of the philanthropists of our Nation, to the absolute necessity of doing something to remove from our midst the hideous evil here portrayed. Let not any hater of the proscribed race endeavor to draw consolation from these pages, for his own unchristian feelings towards the members of that race. Least of all, let any energetic worker in their behalf, as he reads these pages exclaim, "Well if such is their character, why should I labor any more for them?" While I shall not "extenuate" the faults of those I plead for, I shall not "set down aught in malice," but shall sedulously endeavor to present a "plain, unvarnished" statement of facts, for the consideration of my readers.

Book excerpt: A pioneering, dazzling satire about a biracial black girl from Philadelphia searching for her Jewish father in New York City Oreo is raised by her maternal grandparents in Philadelphia. Her black mother tours with a theatrical troupe, and her Jewish deadbeat dad disappeared when she was an infant, leaving behind a mysterious note that triggers her quest to find him. What ensues is a playful, modernized parody of the classical odyssey of Theseus with a feminist twist, immersed in seventies pop culture, and mixing standard English, black vernacular, and Yiddish with wisecracking aplomb. Oreo, our young hero, navigates the labyrinth of sound studios and brothels and subway tunnels in Manhattan, seeking to claim her birthright while unwittingly experiencing and triggering a mythic journey of self-discovery like no other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Southern Spy; Or Curiosities of Negro Slavery in the South: Letters From a Southerner to a Northern Friend Abolition papers, professing to have been written by one who has been a resident of Macon for eleven years, to the effect that the people here do not allow Northern papers to circulate or be taken by subscri bers, or even Congressional documents to be among them, which do not harmonize with their peculiar views. Although this infamous libel is quite as absurd and undeserving of contradiction as the famed Arrow smith hoax, or any of the Sanguinary Crowbar style of negro-worship fictions, it deserves notice in one respect. There are a number of Yankee doughfaces in the South, who before us are the greatest admirers of the peculiar institution, and, to honey-fuggle us, even chime in with the abuse of their own land. There is danger in these men of disguised character, many of whom are doing business in the South. They are not to be trusted; and while, not satisfied with being tolerated among us, they impose on our confidence and hospitality by their professions, they take secret opportunities to gratify their real hatred of us, by tampering with the slaves, or by libelling the South under the shelter of anonymous letters published in the North. The man who would devise a safe oppon tunity to publish what he knew to be false and libel lous of those whose good-will he had won by another lie might, with the same hope of impunity, venture on a grander revenge, and secretly conspire with the slave in a rebellion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Folk-Songs of the Southern Negroes The religious songs of the negro have commonly been accepted as characteristic music of the race. The name spirituals' given them long years ago is still current, while these songs, composed by the negroes, and passing from generation to generation with numerous modifications, retain many of their former characteristics. In former days the spirituals were judged to be the most beautiful produc tion of the race and the truest representation of the negro 's real self. Some of these songs have been published, and for a time their emo tional beauty and simplicity of expression won for the negro a definite place in the hearts of those who had not hitherto known him. He was often judged by these songs alone, reported only imperfectly and superficially, and forthwith came many expressions of delight and en thusiasm for the future possibilities of the negro. These expressions indicate not only the power of the singing of negro spirituals upon those who heard them, but also many of the characteristics of the old and present-day spirituals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Appeal to the People of the Northern and Eastern States: On the Subject of Negro Slavery in South Carolina The subsistence of the slaves consists, from March until August; of corn; ground into grists or meal, which, made into what is called hominy, or baked into corn bread, furnishes a most substantial and wholesome food. The other six months they are fed upon the sweet potato, which is boiled, baked, or roasted, as their taste or fancy may direct. These articles are distributed in weekly allowances, and in sufficient quantity, together with a proper allowance of salt. The skim milk or clabber of the dairy is divided daily. It would be very desirable if regular rations of' bacon, or some other animal food could be furnished them but as this cannot always be practicable, it is difiia cult to make it a matter of permanent regulation. Meat, therefore, when given, is only by way of indulgence or favour. In those sea sons of the year when they are exposed to the most labour, they re ceive bacon, salt fish, and, occasionally, fresh meat. Those who live on creeks and rivers, are at no loss for an abundance of fish and oys ters, to say nothing of the little comforts which all negroes have, by the raising and sale of their pigs, poultry, &c., which they are per mitted to do. But take their subsistence as it is, without any allow ance of meat, is it not infinitely preferable to the oatmeal g Scotland, and the potatoes of Ireland -a species of food very inferior to the sweet potato of a southern soil. Our negroes could not work if fed upon the Irish potato. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Civil War drew to a close, newly emancipated black women workers made their way to Atlanta--the economic hub of the newly emerging urban and industrial south--in order to build an independent and free life on the rubble of their enslaved past. In an original and dramatic work of scholarship, Tera Hunter traces their lives in the postbellum era and reveals the centrality of their labors to the African-American struggle for freedom and justice. Household laborers and washerwomen were constrained by their employers' domestic worlds but constructed their own world of work, play, negotiation, resistance, and community organization. Hunter follows African-American working women from their newfound optimism and hope at the end of the Civil War to their struggles as free domestic laborers in the homes of their former masters. We witness their drive as they build neighborhoods and networks and their energy as they enjoy leisure hours in dance halls and clubs. We learn of their militance and the way they resisted efforts to keep them economically depressed and medically victimized. Finally, we understand the despair and defeat provoked by Jim Crow laws and segregation and how they spurred large numbers of black laboring women to migrate north. Hunter weaves a rich and diverse tapestry of the culture and experience of black women workers in the post-Civil War south. Through anecdote and data, analysis and interpretation, she manages to penetrate African-American life and labor and to reveal the centrality of women at the inception--and at the heart--of the new south.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sketch of the Religious History of the Negroes in the South James Anthony Froude, in depicting the character of the slave population of the West Indies says: Evidently they belonged to a race far inferior to the Zulus and Caffres whom I had known in South Africa. They would have been slaves in their own country, if they had not been brought to ours; and at the worst had lost nothing by the change. Evidence of the extreme degradation of the Africans who were brought to our shores is furnished by the fact that the traders se cured their cargo through the agency of the Africans them selves. It was their own esh and blood who tore the slaves away from their miserable homes, burning their villages, chasing them down, mutilating and destroying many to gratify their selfish greed by selling into bondage those whom they managed to take alive.

Having shown that the public school is utterly indefensible, both as a matter of right and of policy, even if our population were homogeneous, I purpose in this article and in others, which may follow, to discuss the system in its relations to the negro that we may discover what policy is demanded alike by his interests and our own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro Farmer It is often taken for granted that the Negro has practically equal Opportunities in the various parts of the South, and that a fairly uniform rate of progress may be expected. This as sumption rests on an ignorance of the geographical location of the mass of blacks. It will be shown that they are living in several distinct agricultural zones in which success must be sought according to local possibilities. Development always de pends upon the environment, and we should expect, therefore, unequal progress for the Negroes. Even the highest fruits of civilization fail if the bases of life are suddenly changed. The Congregational Church has not ﬂourished among the Negroes as have some other denominations, in spite of its great activity in educational work. The American mode of government is be ing greatly modified to make it fit conditions in Porto Rico. The manufacturers of Pennsylvania and the farmers of Iowa do not agree as to the articles on which duties should be levied, and it is a question if the two have the same interpretation of the principle of protection. Different environments produce differ ent types. So it will be in the case of the Negro. If we are to understand the conditions on which his progress depends, we must pay some attention to economic geography. That this will result in a recognition of the need for shaping plans and methods according to local needs is obvious. The present thesis does not pretend to be a completed study, much less an attempt to solve the Negro problem. It is written in the hope of calling attention to some of the results of this geographic location as illustrated in the situation of the Negro farmer in various parts of the South.
