Excerpt from Negro Problem: There Is No Negro Problem; Get Out of His Path; Let Him Swim or Let Him Sink
To the readers of this book: You notice on the first page I refer to the three amendments to the Constitution of the United States. These were put upon statute books by the people's representatives in Congress assembled. These amendments are as firm as the Government. The enemies of them condemn them. Snarl, deride, usurp and evade them, but not to my knowledge has any of the enemies of these amendments had the courage to question their constitutionality in any of the United States courts. Upon these amendments the Negro's citizenship and manhood rests. Governments derive their powers from consent of the governed. The Negro by right should have a say as to who should control and run the government. Government has for its object the maintenance of justice among men, that men may live together in peace. There must be laws restraining them from injustice and protecting them in the enjoyment of their rights. The office of government is to make and execute such laws. Civil society cannot exist without government. By civil society is meant men living together in a social, civilized state. Men cannot live together in such a state without government. Experience shows that some men are disposed to do injustice to others, and must be restrained by laws. Were there no laws every one could do as he pleased. The wicked could defraud, rob and murder with impunity. Such a state of things is called a state of anarchy. Civil society is an institution of God, is of Divine origin.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. The author contends that the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution were intended to fully integrate the freed slaves into American society. However, the subjugation of African Americans persisted in the form of violence, voter suppression, economic exploitation, and social ostracism. The author critiques the failures of Reconstruction, arguing that the federal government did not adequately protect the rights of African Americans and that white Southerners actively resisted the extension of those rights. The book further examines the ways in which racial prejudice and hatred have continued to shape the experiences of African Americans in the post-Reconstruction era. Ultimately, the author argues that true racial equality will only be achieved when white Americans confront their own complicity in the perpetuation of racism.
