Book excerpt: Excerpt from Difficulties, Complications, and Limitations, Connected With the Education, of the Negro The most obvious hindrance in the way of the education of the negro has so often been presented and discussed his origin, history, environments - that it seems superfluous to treat it anew. His political status, sudden and unparalleled, complicated by antecedent condition, excited false hopes and encouraged the notion of reaching per saltum, without the use of the agencies of time, labor, industry, discipline, what the dominant race had attained after centuries of toil and trial and sacrifice. Education, property, habits of thrift and self control, higher achievements of civilization, are not extempor ized nor created by magic or legislation. Behind the Caucasian lie centuries of the educating, uplifting influence of civilization, of the institutions of family, society, the Churches, the State, and the salutary effects of heredity. Behind the negro are centuries of ignorance, barbarism, slavery, superstition, idol atry, fetichism, and the transmissible consequences of heredity.
