Excerpt from Lectures and Addresses on the Negro in the South
The Phelps-Stokes Fellowship for the Study of the Negro was founded at the University of Virginia in 1912 through a gift from the Trustees of the Phelps-Stokes Fund. It is the duty of the holder of the Fellowship to stimulate and conduct investigation and to encourage and guide a wider general interest among students concerning the character, condition and possibilities of the Negroes in the Southern States.
With this object in view the successive incumbents have organized classes for study that have been well attended and diligent. Special investigations have been carried on by each Fellow; related topics have been assigned for study by individuals and groups, and the results presented for class discussion; and from time to time men distinguished as thoughtful students of Negro Life have been invited to lecture at the University.
This little volume contains lectures delivered by invitation of the Fellow during the past three sessions. The opinions expressed and the policies suggested are those of the respective lecturers. They are published, not to present the opinions of the Fellow nor the attitude of the Universality, but to preserve conclusions reached by independent observers in different parts of the South.
