When Black Meets White by John Louis Hill PDF Summary

Book Description: To cure the ills of the world and harmonize the discordant notes of life, the sum total of mankind, including both leaders and followers, must think in terms of mind, not in terms of matter. Progress is hindered by stumbling over material values. Things we see, touch and possess engage the thought and consume the lives of practical people, while idealists, in the small minority and despite the jeers and protests of the great majority, provide the saving leaven of society. Material values, temporal possessions, inherited traditions, fanatical religions, physical passions and propensities are the cause of human strife as found in personal differences and neighborhood quarrels all the way up to international contentions and world wars. On the high plane of mental qualities and soul possessions, which are the only real and eternal values, no such difficulties arise. It is only upon this plane that reason reigns, and unending peace prevails. Upon this plane there is no race problem,-just the sublime fact of humanity. The race problem cannot be solved by those who are disturbed over so insignificant a thing as the shade of one's skin. No one is responsible for the physical being with which he was endowed by his progenitors. He is no more responsible for the color of his skin than for that of his hair or eyes. And vain is the glory of any individual, race, kindred, tongue or tribe if that glory is limited to the color of the outer coating of the soul's transient abode, which is so soon faded, disfigured and destroyed by the ravages of time. Therefore, my reader, if you are not above such an unworthy prejudice, the contents of this book will not appeal to you. Fifty years of progress by Negroes in America, covering the period between the Civil War and the present time, demonstrate the fact that Negroes are capable of improvement in every phase of life and of advancement in every line of endeavor, possibly unsurpassed by any other people in so brief a period of the world's history.The author makes no plea for colored people as such. In fact, after birth and training in the South and after twenty years of residence in the North, he no longer knows Negroes at all, save as brother human beings, a part of God's handiwork in the divine scheme of existence. If the following pages in any way contribute to a better understanding of the race problem on the part of any individuals of either race, the author's effort will not have been in vain, and a positive and distinct service will be rendered to mankind. We believe that the essence of this whole problem and controversy is found in the truth of that famous quotation by the late Dr. Lyman Abbott: "To deny the brotherhood of man is to deny the fatherhood of God."
