A Tribute for the Negro: . explains the \"sin of slavery\" . refutes notions of the correlation of intellectual ability to skin color . explores the history of slavery across the globe . discusses the \"pernicious influence of slavery\" . mounts an impassioned defense of African culture . offers numerous biographical accounts of slave life in America. An important document of the North American slave experience-and of the abolitionist movement it inspired both in the States and abroad-this is must reading for anyone interested in this most shameful aspect of American history. British writer WILSON ARMISTEAD (1819¬-1868) was a correspondent of Charles Darwin. He also wrote Anthony Benezet (1859).\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 616\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.37 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 21, 2005\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47184678617337,"sku":"9781596053441","price":43.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/bmdvbWlIZGg0QURPaHY0WEJaQXJuZz09.webp?v=1767798221","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/a-tribute-for-the-negro-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
