Synopsis
Excerpt from "The Solid South" And the Afro-American Race Problem: Speech of Charles Francis Adams at the Academy of Music, Richmond, Va., Saturday Evening, 24 October, 1908
Lord Palmerston, as Premier of Great Britain, was wont to say that people talked of political landslides and overwhelming majori ties and all that sort of thing; but, for his own part, what he liked best was a strong Government confronted by a strong Opposition. Here, tersely put, lies the whole secret of a successful parliamentary, or representative government, - a vigorous Opposition facing a powerful Administration. But this is exactly what our country has not got now, has not had for thirty years, and, as I see it, is most unlikely to have just so long as there is a Solid South, the result of an abnormal political, social and industrial condition.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book confronts the impact of the American Civil War on the American South, especially regarding the unresolved problem of racial inequality. The author, an anti-slavery Northerner, provides a firsthand account of the South during Reconstruction, including his experiences as a Union officer. He critiques the Reconstruction policies of the Republican Party, arguing that they failed to solve the issue of racial inequality and instead led to increased conflict and resentment in the South. The book also explores the evolving attitudes towards race in the North, emphasizing the shift from a belief in racial equality to a more pessimistic view of the possibilities for racial integration. The author concludes by arguing that the solution to the race problem must come from within the South itself, and that any external intervention will only serve to worsen the situation. This book offers a valuable historical perspective on the complex and ongoing issue of race in America.
