Publisher's Synopsis
The Story Of The Negro: The Rise Of The Race From Slavery V2 is a historical book written by Booker T. Washington. This book is the second volume of a two-part series that chronicles the history of the African American community in the United States from the time of slavery to the early 20th century. In this volume, Washington continues his exploration of the African American experience, focusing on the period after the Civil War and the challenges faced by the newly freed slaves as they struggled to establish themselves in a society that was still deeply divided by race. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the rise of black entrepreneurship, the growth of black churches and schools, and the political struggles of the Reconstruction era. Washington also examines the contributions of prominent African American leaders and activists, such as Frederick Douglass, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Booker T. Washington himself. Throughout the book, Washington emphasizes the resilience and determination of the black community in the face of adversity, and he offers a message of hope and inspiration to readers. The Story Of The Negro: The Rise Of The Race From Slavery V2 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in African American history and the ongoing struggle for racial equality in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
