Book Description
Excerpt from The Education of the Southern Negro Whatever may have been the sins of the old South - and every well-informed Southerner is now willing to confess at least some of them, and that, too, without any degree of disloyalty - her development of the negro slaves, as described above, is convincing evidence of her intelligence and philanthropy. In those old days the love of money, which is the root of more than one grievous evil, had certainly not taken possession of our fathers, and had not blinded them to the discharge of their duties toward a race which, in the providence of God, had been placed in their keeping.

Book Description
Excerpt from Improving Education in the Southern States, 1941: Results of the Committee on Negro Education The results of all these changes and of course, cannot be accurately measured. It is an established fact that the amount of illiteracy among Negroes has been materially reduced. How ever, at least 10 per cent of the Negroes are still classed as illiterates and another rather substantial percentage has had such limited schooling that no very tangible results are apparent. In general, however, as the percentage of Negroes attending high school and college has increased, the number of Negroes who have entered professional work and who have achieved a higher economic level has increased correspondingly. While almost every trend has shown material improvement, some of the gains have been relatively slow and have not kept pace with changes which have occurred in other groups. The problem of improving Negro education is not merely a problem of making gains from a given starting point but also a problem of overcoming many handicaps in ratios so that the relative status will be improved. Some progress has been made in this latter respect, but, in many instances, the relative status has not been greatly improved during recent years. For other information on Trends, see Chapter I of Bulletin No. 1, State and Local Financing of Schools. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Two Addresses on Negro Education in the South, Vol. 5 Some men of fine intelligence are too ready to despair of the benefits, the moral and intellectual advantages of education to the negro race. I am con strained to believe that these men are blinded by race prejudice, or suffering from a restricted personal narrowness. Within one generation of slavery, with no adequate teachers, with all the obstacles and horrors of the period of Reconstruction, when one side strove to make the negro politically dominant, and the other side fought to restore him to a condition of slavery, how can it be said that negro education has had a fair trial?

Book Description
Excerpt from Negro Life in the South: Present Conditions and Needs During the month of April, 1908, a company of seven men, four negroes and three white men, came together in the City of Atlanta to discuss the present race question, with special reference to what the college men of the South might do to better conditions. Those present in this conference were Dr. W. R. Lambuth, Missionary Secretary of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South; Dr. Stewart R. Roberts, formerly a professor at Emory College, Georgia, now professor of physiology in the Atlanta School of Physicians and Surgeons; President John Hope, of Atlanta Baptist College (colored), a colored man of broad education and scholarly spirit; Professor John Wesley Gilbert, one of the most scholarly and sane minded negro men in the South; Messrs. W. A. Hunton and J. E. Moorland, secretaries of the Colored Department, International Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations, and the author. We spent six hours in a very thorough and earnest conference, the result being a unanimous vote to have a text book prepared on the negro in the South, which could be used in the Home Mission classes of the College Young Men's Christian Associations.

Book Description
James Anderson critically reinterprets the history of southern black education from Reconstruction to the Great Depression. By placing black schooling within a political, cultural, and economic context, he offers fresh insights into black commitment to education, the peculiar significance of Tuskegee Institute, and the conflicting goals of various philanthropic groups, among other matters. Initially, ex-slaves attempted to create an educational system that would support and extend their emancipation, but their children were pushed into a system of industrial education that presupposed black political and economic subordination. This conception of education and social order--supported by northern industrial philanthropists, some black educators, and most southern school officials--conflicted with the aspirations of ex-slaves and their descendants, resulting at the turn of the century in a bitter national debate over the purposes of black education. Because blacks lacked economic and political power, white elites were able to control the structure and content of black elementary, secondary, normal, and college education during the first third of the twentieth century. Nonetheless, blacks persisted in their struggle to develop an educational system in accordance with their own needs and desires.
