Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Possibilities of the Negro in Symposium
The masterful bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, Warren A. Candler, pleads for justice toward the negro as opposed to the mob. The ear nest and observant bishop of the African Methodist Church, Henry M. Turner, agrees that this question can only be settled by the separation of the races, and Rev. L. H. Holsey, D.D., the eloquent and big hearted bishop of the Colored M. E. Church, pleads for the segregation of the race in some portion of our national domain.
Richard H. Edmonds, editor of the Manufacturers' Record, an astute man of business, holds that if wily politicians and sentimental philanthropists will let this problem alone, the two races will probably work out its solution.
Many say they are tired of this discussion - but cer tain things are true: The negro is here, and here to stay, and so long as there is the want of perfect ad justment between him and the white race, there will be the problem, and so long as there is a problem, there will be a discussion.
