Publisher's Synopsis
When Black Meets White is a novel written by John Louis Hill and published in 1922. The book explores the themes of race, identity, and belonging in America during the early 20th century. The story centers around the character of John, a young African American man who is torn between his desire to assimilate into white society and his loyalty to his black heritage. John's struggle is further complicated by his romantic interest in a white woman named Mary, which is met with disapproval from both black and white communities. As John navigates the complexities of race relations in America, he must confront his own biases and prejudices and ultimately make a choice about where he belongs. The novel offers a nuanced portrayal of the challenges faced by African Americans in a society that was deeply divided along racial lines. Hill's writing is characterized by its sensitivity and compassion, and his exploration of race and identity remains relevant to contemporary discussions about race in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
