The Negro in the South - Paperback

by Booker T. Washington (Author), W. E. B. Du Bois (Author)

We are now, I think, far enough removed from the period of slavery to be able to study the influence of that institution objectively rather than subjectively. Surely if any Negro who was a part of the institution itself can do so, the remaining portion of the American people ought to be able to do so, whether they live at the North or at the South.
