Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Leader of Freemen: The Life Story of Samuel Chapman Armstrong, Brevet Brigadier-General, U. S. A This is a brief story of the life of a man who "made good." Doubtless he never once used that expression. Very likely he never heard it. It is equally certain, too, that he never applied it to himself or even dreamed that he had won any such title. If he had thought so this story would not have been written. For making good is something like popularity; - the man who tries to be popular never succeeds. If one makes friends he does so because of what he really is, not because of what he does. If a fellow's mates do not like him for what he is, they certainly will not be drawn to him by his open efforts to make himself popular. And the same thing is true in making good. Many a man who really is making good would hardly believe you if you were to tell him of the fact. On the other hand, if he should tell you that he is making good you would hardly believe him. Good old Archbishop Whately used to say of a certain young preacher that "he aimed at nothing and hit it."

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1917 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III LIFE IN THE ARMY Word came to Armstrong in the early summer of 1862 that Colonel Willard, a regular army officer of high standing, was to raise a regiment of volunteers at Troy, N. Y. A short time later Armstrong was in Troy, had applied for a commission, and was presently actively engaged in recruiting. He put up a shanty on a public square, scattered posters, and went to work. The undertaking was intensely interesting to him, and as he expressed it, he met the very meanest and the very best of men, some enlisting for money and some solely for love of country. Armstrong's methods were successful, for he was the first man to fill his quota of recruits, and presently found himself captain of a company. He also prided himself on the fact that his company contained the most respectable men in the regiment. Hardly could it be otherwise with his example before them; they knew that he was upright, honorable, and a Christian gentleman, who did his duty thoroughly and was not afraid to do himself anything that he might require of his men. His brother relates an incident which took place in New York as the One Hundred and Twenty-fifth New York Volunteers were passing through on their way to the front, which may serve to show one reason why Armstrong's men loved him. The regiment was encamped in City Hall Park, and the two brothers were talking together when a private came up to Captain Armstrong and inquired where he could get a drink of water. Armstrong started at once to get water for him, and when it was suggested to him by his brother that it might not be very good military discipline for a captain to be running around getting water for his men, he replied, "The men must have water. I'm bound to see that they get it." From New...

Download or read book Educating the Disfranchised and Disinherited written by Robert Francis Engs and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best remembered as the founder of Hampton Institute and mentor of Booker T. Washington, Samuel Chapman Armstrong played a crucial role in white philanthropy and educational strategies toward nonwhite people in late-nineteenth-century America. Until now, however, there has been no scholarly biography of Armstrong--his story has usually been subsumed within that of his famous protégé. In Educating the Disfranchised and Disinherited, Robert Francis Engs illuminates both Armstrong's life and an important chapter in the history of American race relations. Armstrong was the son of missionaries to Hawaii, and as Engs makes clear, his early experiences in a multiracial, predominantly non-European society did much to determine his life's work--the uplift of "backward peoples." After attending Williams College, Armstrong commanded black troops in the Civil War and served as a Freedmen's Bureau agent before founding Hampton in 1869. At the institute, he implemented a unique combination of manual labor education and teacher training, creating an educational system that he believed would enable African Americans and other disfranchised peoples to rise gradually toward the level of white civilization. Recent studies have often blamed Armstrong for "miseducating" an entire generation of African Americans and for Washington's failings as a "race leader." Indeed, as Engs notes, Armstrong's educational designs were paternalistic in the extreme, and in addressing certain audiences, he could sometimes sound like a consummate racist. On the other hand, he frequently expressed a deep devotion to the ultimate equality of African Africans and incorporated the best of his black graduates into the Hampton staff. Sorting through the complexities and contradictions of Armstrong's character and vision, Engs's masterful biography provides new insights into the failures of emancipation and into the sometimes flawed responses of one heir to antebellum abolition and egalitarian Christianity. The Author: Robert Francis Engs is associate professor of history at the University of Pennsylvania and the author of Freedom's First Generation: Black Hampton, Virginia, 1861-1890.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How might we understand yellowface performances by African Americans in 1930s swing adaptations of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado, Paul Robeson's support of Asian and Asian American struggles, or the absorption of hip hop by Asian American youth culture?AfroAsian Encounters is the first anthology to look at the mutual influence of and relationships between members of the African and Asian diasporas in the Americas. While these two groups have often been thought of as occupying incommensurate, if not opposing, cultural and political positions, scholars from history, literature, media, and the visual arts here trace their interconnections and interactions, as well as how they have been set in opposition by white systems of racial domination. AfroAsian Encounters probes beyond popular culture to trace the historical lineage of these coalitions from the post-Civil War era through the present.From the history of Japanese jazz composers to the current popularity of black/Asian "buddy films" like Rush Hour, AfroAsian Encounters is a groundbreaking intervention into studies of race and ethnicity and a crucial look at the shifting meaning of race in America in the twenty-first century.
