Schooling for the New Slavery: Black Industrial Education, 1868-1915

By Donald Spivey

Book Overview

One of the most damning and compelling critiques of the New South, Northern benevolence and the race leadership of W.E.B. DuBois's The Souls Of Black Folk. Spivey presents an arresting case for industrial education in the post-Civil War South as being a major force in teaching blacks to remain subservient. Drawing heavily on newspapers, archives and the manuscript collections of the institutions involved, he presents a radical and controversial re-reading of recent US history.
