The White Man's Burden A Discussion Of The Interracial Question With Special Reference To The Responsibility Of The White Race To The Negro Problem (1910)

The White Man's Burden is a book written by B.F. Riley in 1910, which discusses the issue of interracial relations, with a particular focus on the responsibility of the white race in solving the ""Negro problem"". The book is a product of its time and reflects the prevailing attitudes towards race and ethnicity in the early 20th century. The author argues that it is the duty of the white race to uplift and civilize other races, including African Americans, who are viewed as inferior and in need of guidance. Riley also touches on the role of religion in shaping attitudes towards race and the importance of education in promoting racial harmony. The book provides insight into the attitudes and beliefs of white Americans towards African Americans during a period of significant social and political change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
