Short History of the American Negro e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is perhaps only when one enters upon such a study as this that he realizes how valuable are the investiga tions of Dr. W. E. B. Dubois in this field. For the earlier years the thesis, The Suppression of the African slave-trade, is really indispensable; and one of the chapters is largely based on the Atlanta Univer sity publication, The Negro Church. In a similar way is another chapter based upon the valuable study by Dr. R. R. Wright, In, entitled self-help in Negro Education. The last chapter is naturally much indebted to my own publication, The Negro in Literature and Art.
