The Negro: What Is His Ethnological Status? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163075906)

The Negro: What Is His Ethnological Status? is a book written by Ariel, a pseudonym for the American physician and writer, Samuel A. Cartwright. The book was first published in 1854 and explores the question of the racial identity and status of African Americans.In the book, Ariel argues that African Americans are a separate and inferior race to white people, based on his observations of physical and mental differences between the two groups. He also draws on scientific and historical evidence to support his claims, including the work of other scholars and the Bible.Ariel's views on race were controversial even in his own time, and the book was met with criticism from abolitionists and other opponents of slavery. However, it was also widely read and influential in shaping popular attitudes towards race and racial identity in the United States.Despite its problematic content, The Negro: What Is His Ethnological Status? remains an important historical document for understanding the history of race relations in the United States and the development of racist ideologies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
