Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This volume seeks to make a case for continuing the education of the freed African American population in the post-Civil War South. The author argues that the education of all Americans, regardless of race, makes good sense from a moral, economic, and political perspective. The author situates the problem within the context of the history of racial prejudice in America and discusses the specious arguments that were offered to justify denying African Americans education, such as fears that education would make them unfit for manual labor or lead to racial unrest. The author also emphasizes the importance of religious and moral instruction for freed slaves to help them navigate the moral complexities of freedom. By bringing together arguments made on the basis of racial prejudice, equality, justice, economics, and history, this book argues the case that the education of African Americans is vital to the future of America and that the endeavor must be carried out in a spirit of Christian love and non-violence. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
