Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Torch-Lights and Stepping-Stones From Slavery to Self-Government: Waking Up, and Inspiring Poetry, and Orations to Solve the Race Problem I taught school seven years. Graduated in Optometry, and became an eye-sight specialist in 1906. Finished law, and passed North Carolina bar examination, and received license to practice law in 1912; since which time I have been engaged in successful practice, and have won many important cases. Have received many compliments for skill, and ability in trying cases, in the several courts. Was commissioned a Notary Public by Governor Bickett in 1919. I have long seen, that the South has two race-problems, instead of one; which are, the white man´s Negro problem, of keeping the colored people in virtual slavery, by denying them political privileges; and giving them very little learning; and the Negros white man problem; which is to come out from under class despotism, and enjoy their constitutional rights in defianc of their efforts to prevent it. But, since they have the control of the government, and the educational funds, you can never prevent them from keeping the masses in servitude, and dominating over the race, so long as we remain here; so the only solution of our problem, is emigration. I will have to ask my readers to kindly judge the value of this book, by the intrinsic worth of the matter its-self, and to overlook technical errors, and mistakes, of which they will find not a few, caused both from the fact that I am only an amateur in the arts of writing, and printing: and the only time I have had to devote to it was of nights, and such spare moments that I have been able to snatch from my work during the day. The task has been a most tedious, and tiresome one but I have been encourage-1, and sustained in my effort to finish it, by the assurance of many friends, that it would surpass all other books yet written for the benefit of the race, and solve the race-problem. It consists of a series of new, and original master pieces of eloquence, and poetry on the race: that make splendid recitations for schools, and lyceums.
