Separate and Unequal: Public School Campaigns and Racism in the Southern Seaboard States, 1901-1915.

—

---

Scarce first edition of Harlan’s analysis of “...the story of public education in the four Southern seaboard states [Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia] under the impact of two powerful forces—the wave of racism that swept the South in the early 1900’s and the efforts during the same period of a group of Northern philanthropists to help the crusading school men of the South toward their goal of ‘universal’ education. [The four states] swung under the pressure of the Southern Education movement and the White Supremacists toward a slowly expanding public school system—and toward an ever widening inequality between whites and Negroes.”
