Synopsis
Explore a detailed case for African colonization as a path to reduce conflict between whites and free people of color in the United States, and to build a new home in Africa.
This edition presents a historical argument that began in 1816 with a society’s plan to relocate free people of color, aiming to guide policy and public opinion. It traces how immigration, education, commerce, and foreign relations shaped the proposal over decades, and why supporters saw colonization as a practical, long-term solution rather than compelled action on slavery.
- Learn how the idea of removing free people of color emerged, its early leaders, and the original aims.
- See how changes in immigration, education, and labor markets affected support for or against the plan.
- Understand the economic logic tying colonization to trade and the use of Liberia as a strategic gateway.
- Grasp the debate about whether separation could prevent national conflict and what it would mean for the people involved.
Ideal for readers of 19th-century history, political philosophy, and debates over race, immigration, and national policy.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book argues for the separation of the white and free colored races of the United States through African Colonization. The author presents evidence of the growing tensions between the two groups, particularly due to increased foreign immigration and the resulting competition for jobs. Alternative solutions, such as eliminating white prejudice or halting the flow of European immigrants, are deemed impractical or impossible. The book also highlights the potential benefits of African Colonization, including the establishment of a refuge for free people of color, the end of the slave trade, and the spread of Christianity and civilization in Africa. While acknowledging that the process of colonization will take time and involve challenges, the author believes it is the only viable solution to the growing racial divide and will ultimately benefit both races. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
