Sinopsis

A clear, urgent look at the race question in American democracy and what it means for rights, policy, and citizenship.

This edition examines how seven million Black Americans fit into the nation’s promise of equal rights, and how state and national power shape that debate. It explains the long history, the shifting laws, and the stubborn conflicts that keep the issue alive, while offering a practical call for civic engagement and principled reforms.

  • How rights and citizenship have evolved in the United States and what remains contested today
  • The tension between state power and national policy in pursuing civil rights
  • Examples of everyday life that illustrate how racial distinctions affect travel, housing, and access to public services
  • Ideas for individual leadership, strategic action, and working toward a more just public government

Ideal for readers seeking a thoughtful, historically grounded perspective on the Negro question and its place in American democracy.

Excerpt from The Negro Question

The matter that is made the subject of these pages is not to-day the most prominent, but it is the gravest, in American affairs. It is one upon which, of late years, as we might say, much inattention has been carefully bestowed. It has become a dreaded question. We are not politically indolent. We are dealing courageously with many serious problems. We admit that no nation has yet so shaken wrong and oppression from its skires that it may safely and honorably sit down in a state of mercantile and æsthetical pre-occupation. And yet the matter that gives us daily the profoundest unrest goes daily by default.
