Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Battle With the Slum Three years ago I published under the title A Ten Years' War a series Of papers intended to account for the battle with the slum since I wrote How the Other Half Lives. A good many things can happen in three years. SO many things have happened in these three, the fighting has been so general all along the line and has so held public attention, that this seems the proper time to pass it all in review Once more. That I have tried to do in this book, retaining all that still applied Of the Old volume and adding as much more. The stories were printed in the Century Magazine. They are fact, not fiction. If the latter, they would have no place here. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Battle with the Slum written by Jacob A. Riis and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-05-16 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The slum is as old as civilization. Civilization implies a race to get ahead. In a race there are usually some who for one cause or another cannot keep up, or are thrust out from among their fellows. They fall behind, and when they have been left far in the rear they lose hope and ambition, and give up. Thenceforward, if left to their own resources, they are the victims, not the masters, of their environment; and it is a bad master. They drag one another always farther down. The bad environment becomes the heredity of the next generation. Then, given the crowd, you have the slum ready-made. The battle with the slum began the day civilization recognized in it her enemy. It was a losing fight until conscience joined forces with fear and self-interest against it. When common sense and the golden rule obtain among men as a rule of practice, it will be over. The two have not always been classed together, but here they are plainly seen to belong together. Justice to the individual is accepted in theory as the only safe groundwork of the commonwealth. When it is practised in dealing with the slum, there will shortly be no slum. We need not wait for the millennium, to get rid of it. We can do it now. All that is required is that it shall not be left to itself. That is justice to it and to us, since its grievous ailment is that it cannot help itself. When a man is drowning, the thing to do is to pull him out of the water; afterward there will be time for talking it over. We got at it the other way in dealing with our social problems. The wise men had their day, and they decided to let bad enough alone; that it was unsafe to interfere with "causes that operate sociologically," as one survivor of these unfittest put it to me. It was a piece of scientific humbug that cost the age which listened to it dear. "Causes that operate sociologically" are the opportunity of the political and every other kind of scamp who trades upon the depravity and helplessness of the slum, and the refuge of the pessimist who is useless in the fight against them. We have not done yet paying the bills he ran up for us. Some time since we turned to, to pull the drowning man out, and it was time. A little while longer, and we should hardly have escaped being dragged down with him.

Download or read book The Battle With the Slum (Esprios Classics) written by Jacob a Riis and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob August Riis (May 3, 1849 - May 26, 1914) was a Danish-American social reformer, "muckraking" journalist and social documentary photographer. He contributed significantly to the cause of urban reform in America at the turn of the twentieth century. He is known for using his photographic and journalistic talents to help the impoverished in New York City; those impoverished New Yorkers were the subject of most of his prolific writings and photography. He endorsed the implementation of "model tenements" in New York with the help of humanitarian Lawrence Veiller. Additionally, as one of the most famous proponents of the newly practicable casual photography, he is considered one of the fathers of photography due to his very early adoption of flash in photography.
