Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Taxation of Negroes in Virginia
The present essay is the result of my investigations while I held the phelps-stokes Fellowship at the Universityof Virginia during the session of 1915-16. In it I have endeavored to por tray the attitude of Virginia toward the negro problem as it is re?ected through one phase, taxation, of the state's activities. As a first consideration, I have sought a strict adherence to facts, and it has been my purpose in every instance to give an unbiased interpretation of the data presented. So far as I am aware, no specialized study of the taxation of negroes has ever been undertaken for any state or city. This fact alone is a suf ficient justification for the appearance of the present essay.
