The Future of the American Negro

Preface

In giving this volume to the public, I deem it fair to say that I have yielded to the oft-repeated requests that I put in some more definite and permanent form the ideas regarding the Negro and his future which I have expressed many times on the public platform and through the public press and magazines.

I make grateful acknowledgment to the “Atlantic Monthly” and “Appleton’s Popular Science Monthly” for their kindness in granting permission for the use of some part of articles which I have at various times contributed to their columns.
