J. A. Rogers
<P>In the Sex and Race series, first published in the 1940s, historian Joel Augustus Rogers questioned the concept of race, the origins of racial differentiation, and the root of the "color problem." Rogers surmised that a large percentage of ethnic differences are the result of sociological factors and in these volumes he gathered what he called "the bran of history"—the uncollected, unexamined history of black people—in the hope that these neglected parts of history would become part of the mainstream body of Western history. Drawing on a vast amount of research, Rogers was attempting to point out the absurdity of racial divisions. Indeed his belief in one race—humanity—precluded the idea of several different ethnic races. The series marshals the data he had collected as evidence to prove his underlying humanistic thesis: that people were one large family without racial boundaries. Self-trained and self-published, Rogers and his work were immensely popular and influential during his day, even cited by Malcolm X. The books are presented here in their original editions.</P>

Wealth Of Intriguing Knowledge

Another book by J. A. Rodgers that I’d read in my early 20’s. It’s amazing how much research he was able to do while working as a porter on a Pullman back around the turn of the last century. J. A. Rodgers is to be admired for his accomplishments that will open your mind to to consider alternatives to previous beliefs about race.

They are like treasures to me

I bought this as a gift. I have all four J.A. Rogers books and have had them for years. They are like treasures to me. I recently got rid of about two hundred books but I kept my J.A. Rogers. J.A. Rogers says their is more to history than we are aware and many unwritten events and chapters yet to be explored especially in race relations.

Awesome

Awesome... I would like a discount on future items.

Not for me

I did not like this book at all. I honestly did not get past the first few pages. It was some terms and phrases that I definitely did not agree with that steered me away from the book as well.
