The Negro And The Elective Franchise: A Series Of Papers And A Sermon (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781020619472)

Written by one of the most prominent African-American intellectuals of the early 20th century, this collection of essays and sermons argues for the extension of voting rights to black Americans. Grimké makes a compelling case for the importance of political participation in the struggle for racial equality, and he exposes the fallacies of the arguments used by opponents of suffrage. His eloquent prose and powerful rhetoric still speak to us today, as we continue to fight for a more just and inclusive society.
