Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro: Past, Present, and Future The object of this book is to place the negro before the American public just as he lives and moves in the South. His racial peculiarities and limitations are re lated with no malice toward the race, but for the benefit of both races, in order that the white people of the Republic may in vestigate and see the negro as others see and know him. Mistaken ideas regarding the race are more hurtful to the negro than the white man, and if this book can correct only a few mistakes made in the past, its mission to both races will be fulfilled.

Book Synopsis The White Man's Burden by : B. F. Riley
Download or read book The White Man's Burden written by B. F. Riley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The White Man's Burden: A Discussion of the Interracial Question With Special Reference to the Responsibility of the White Race to the Negro Problem The situation in the South has been presented in the following chapters, as the writer has seen it for a period of years. He claims that the advantage of being on the ground, as a close student of the existing situation, gives him at least some advantage in the presentation of his views, and a claim to be heard regarding a problem which has so long afflicted our people. From its numerous sides the problem has been often presented, but oftener than otherwise, from view-points of prejudice or partisanship. It betokens signs more favorable, however, that in the most recent works which have appeared on the subject, from the pens of representatives of both races, sentiments have assumed a milder and more assuring tone, while they have not been without the abatement of firmness and candor. It is also gratifying that the extravagance which has characterized so much of the literature adverse to the Negro in the past, is losing its popularity among the people of the South, thousands of whom happen to know that many of the statements which have been made are, to say the least, exaggerated.

Book Synopsis White Over Black by : Winthrop D. Jordan
Download or read book White Over Black written by Winthrop D. Jordan and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2013-02-06 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1968, Winthrop D. Jordan set out in encyclopedic detail the evolution of white Englishmen's and Anglo-Americans' perceptions of blacks, perceptions of difference used to justify race-based slavery, and liberty and justice for whites only. This second edition, with new forewords by historians Christopher Leslie Brown and Peter H. Wood, reminds us that Jordan's text is still the definitive work on the history of race in America in the colonial era. Every book published to this day on slavery and racism builds upon his work; all are judged in comparison to it; none has surpassed it.

The black man comes up incidentally, if he is mentioned at all. If a black man is present at any of these meetings where these discussions are being held, his chief interest centers in what will be said of him. He has a feeling that they are thinking about him, even if they do not mention his name. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro and the Nation Providence, according to Mr. Kipling, has been pleased to place upon the white man's shoulders the tremendous burden of regulating the affairs of men of all other colors, who, for the purpose of his argument, are backward and undeveloped - half devil and half child. When one considers that of the sixteen hundred million people living upon this earth, more than twelve hundred million are col ored, this seems a truly staggering burden. But it does not seem to have ocurred to the proponents of this pleasant doctrine that the shoe may be upon the other foot so far as the other twelve hundred million are concerned. It is easy to maintain an ex parte argument, and as long as we do not ask the other side to state their case our own arguments will appear not only convincing but conclusive. But in the court of common sense this method is not generally allowed and a case is not considered closed until both parties have been heard from.

Book Synopsis The Journal of Negro History, 1919, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint) by : Carter G. Woodson
Download or read book The Journal of Negro History, 1919, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint) written by Carter G. Woodson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Negro History, 1919, Vol. 4 I am inclined to carry it back into the beginnings Of the race, back to the period Of pre-historic law and to that psy chological origin which antedates the records of history, in the strict sense, to that part of racial history indeed where men commonly act rather than write. The idea of pre historic law is that Obligation exists only between people of the same blood. Originally, charitable and decent con duct was expected only of people of the same family. Even though the family was by fact or fiction extended to include some hundreds or even thousands of people, the fact was still true. The law which bound a man limited his good conduct to a relatively few people. Outside the blood kin he was not bound. He must not steal from his relatives, but if he stole from another clan, his relatives deemed it virtue. If he committed murder, he should be punished within his clan, but protected, if possible, by his clan, if be murdered someone outside it. The blood kin became the definite limitation of the ideas of right and responsibility. This was true between whites. All whites we re not mem bers of any one man's blood kin. Palpably more true was this distinction between the Negro and the White man. The Negro could not by any fiction be represented as one of the blood kin. The Romans extended the legal citizenship to cover all white men in their dominions. It was the fictitious tie Of the blood kin, but its plausibility was due to the fact that they were all White. I do not remember to have seen any proof that the Negro inhabitants Of the Roman African colonies were considered Roman citizens. This is one of the Oldest psychological lines in human history; the rights which a man must con cede to another are limited by the relationship Of blood. Prima facie there could be no blood relationship between the Negro and the white man. There could therefore be no Obligation on the White man's part to the Negro in pre historic law. This notion has, I think, endured in many ways down to the present day as a subconscious, uncon scious factor behind many very vital notions and ideas. Is it not true that international law has been, more Often than not, a law between White men? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Black on White by : David R. Roediger
Download or read book Black on White written by David R. Roediger and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2010-03-31 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thought-provoking volume, David R. Roediger has brought together some of the most important black writers throughout history to explore the question: What does it really mean to be white in America? From folktales and slave narratives to contemporary essays, poetry, and fiction, black writers have long been among America's keenest students of white consciousness and white behavior, but until now much of this writing has been ignored. Black on White reverses this trend by presenting the work of more than fifty major figures, including James Baldwin, Derrick Bell, Ralph Ellison, W.E.B. Du Bois, bell hooks, Toni Morrison, and Alice Walker to take a closer look at the many meanings of whiteness in our society. Rich in irony, artistry, passion, and common sense, these reflections on what Langston Hughes called "the ways of white folks" illustrate how whiteness as a racial identity derives its meaning not as a biological category but as a social construct designed to uphold racial inequality. Powerful and compelling, Black on White provides a much-needed perspective that is sure to have a major impact on the study of race and race relations in America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Negro and the Atlanta Exposition It is an interesting and a most hopeful sign of the times, that an Exposition on the soil of the old Slave States and managed by Southern white men, should have contained the first adequate exhibit ever made in this country of the progress and status of the American negro. When the directors of the Cotton States Exposition set apart one building on the grounds for a negro exhibit, and invited the negroes Of the whole country to organize, for the purpose Of showing what they could do, it was a formal recognition Of the fact that the negro was an integral part Of the South, and that on his progress in the arts Of civilization depended in some measure the progress of the section that the Exposition was intended to represent. On the side of the white man it was a gracious and a friendly act, and one that tended to promote harmony between the two races. On the negro's side, it was a test Of his abilities in many ways. In order to understand fully the desirability Of such a test, a brief review is necessary of the effect upon his own mental attitude, and upon that of the whites North and South, of his thirty years of freedom and Opportunity.

Download or read book The Gift of Black Folk written by William Edward Burghardt Du Bois and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gift of Black Folk: The Negroes in the Making of America A moment's thought will easily convince open minded persons that the contribution of the Ne gro to American nationality as slave, freedman and citizen was far from negligible. No element in American life has so subtly and yet clearly woven itself into the warp and woof of our think ing and acting as the American Negro. He came with the first explorers and helped 1n exploration. His labor was from the first the foundation of the American prosperity and the cause of the rapid growth of the new world in economic and social importance. Modern democracy rests not simply on the striving white men in Europe and America but also on the persist'ent struggle of the black men in America for two centuries. The military defense of this land has depended upon Negro soldiers from the time 'of the Colonial wars down to the struggle of the World War. Not only does the Negro appear, reappear and persist in American literature but a Negro Ameri can literature has arisen of deep significance, and Negro folk lore and music are among the choicest heritages of this land.

Download or read book Oreo written by Fran Ross and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 Black Man: His Antecedents, His Genius, and His Achievements The calumniators and traducers of the Negro are to be found, mainly, among two classes. The first and most relentless are those who have done them the greatest injury, by being instrumental in their enslavement and consequent degradation. They de light to descant upon the natural inferiority of the blacks, and claim that we were destined only for a servile condition, entitled neither to liberty nor the legitimate pursuit of happiness. The second class are those who are ignorant of the characteristics of the race, and are the mere echoes of the first. To meet and refute these misrepresentations, and to supply a deficiency, long felt in the community, of a work containing sketches of individuals who, by their own genius, capacity, and intellectual development.
