This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liberia the Americo-African Republic, Being Some Impressions of the Climate, Resources, and People, Resulting From Personal Observations and Experiences in West Africa The Belgian king, who has enlisted the great States of Europe to follow his "New Star in the East" on the Congo, found his parallel to guide him in Berkeley's "Star of Empire"; which arose two and a half centuries ago on the American shores. In the history of Liberia the parallel holds good. The men who colonized the new settlements, now constituting the United States of America, were mostly the descendants of slaves under successive Roman, Saxon, Danish, and Norman lords. They learned self-government as colonists only after five generations of protectorate under the mother country. Their early settlements on the coast and along river-bottoms proved unhealthful, sterile, and inhospitable. Jamestown was soon deserted; Chester and Plymouth were left to decay; commerce often was hampered; and public debt seemed irretrievable. Youth were sent to the mother country to be educated; and churches sought both ministers and their support from the mother country. Liberia was settled only two generations ago by slaves just freed, without property or education. In one generation they were nominally independent; having their own Executive, Judiciary, and Legislature. No nation behind, fully in sympathy, fostered them in their need; the U. S. Government only making their territory an asylum for recaptured slaves; and not even granting their special needs, exploration and opening up inland resources, mail communication with their kindred at home, a gun-boat to protect their commerce; all which "neglect" another Burke in the U. S. Congress is needed faithfully to portray. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally formed to harbor freed slaves and Americans returning to Africa, Liberia once was a land of hope.

A new chronology of Liberia is included, and a selected bibliography suggests further readings for the scholar.

Book Synopsis Righteous Propagation by : Michele Mitchell
Download or read book Righteous Propagation written by Michele Mitchell and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2005-10-12 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1877 and 1930--years rife with tensions over citizenship, suffrage, immigration, and "the Negro problem--African American activists promoted an array of strategies for progress and power built around "racial destiny," the idea that black Americans formed a collective whose future existence would be determined by the actions of its members. In Righteous Propagation, Michele Mitchell examines the reproductive implications of racial destiny, demonstrating how it forcefully linked particular visions of gender, conduct, and sexuality to collective well-being. Mitchell argues that while African Americans did not agree on specific ways to bolster their collective prospects, ideas about racial destiny and progress generally shifted from outward-looking remedies such as emigration to inward-focused debates about intraracial relationships, thereby politicizing the most private aspects of black life and spurring race activists to calcify gender roles, monitor intraracial sexual practices, and promote moral purity. Examining the ideas of well-known elite reformers such as Mary Church Terrell and W. E. B. DuBois, as well as unknown members of the working and aspiring classes, such as James Dubose and Josie Briggs Hall, Mitchell reinterprets black protest and politics and recasts the way we think about black sexuality and progress after Reconstruction.
Book Synopsis Brooklyn's Promised Land by : Judith Wellman
Download or read book Brooklyn's Promised Land written by Judith Wellman and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tells the riveting narrative of the growth, disappearance, and eventual rediscovery of one of the largest free black communities of the nineteenth century In 1966 a group of students, Boy Scouts, and local citizens rediscovered all that remained of a then virtually unknown community called Weeksville: four frame houses on Hunterfly Road. The infrastructure and vibrant history of Weeksville, an African American community that had become one of the largest free black communities in nineteenth century United States, were virtually wiped out by Brooklyn’s exploding population and expanding urban grid. Weeksville was founded by African American entrepreneurs after slavery ended in New York State in 1827. Located in eastern Brooklyn, Weeksville provided a space of physical safety, economic prosperity, education, and even political power for its black population, who organized churches, a school, orphan asylum, home for the aged, newspapers, and the national African Civilization Society. Notable residents of Weeksville, such as journalist and educator Junius P. Morell, participated in every major national effort for African American rights, including the Civil War. Drawing on maps, newspapers, census records, photographs, and the material culture of buildings and artifacts, Wellman reconstructs the social history and national significance of this extraordinary place. Through the lens of this local community, Brooklyn’s Promised Land highlights themes still relevant to African Americans across the country.
