Clash of Color! a Study in Problem of Race

Basil Joseph Mathews

4.9/5 (13848 ratings)

Description:THE challenge of Mount Everest and that of the Race Problem are closely parallel. They are, both of them, in their separate ways, the biggest thing in the world. Each has defied man’s efforts. Yet each makes an irresistible call to the adventure of facing its perils and defying its difficulties.The very fact that the new post-war race problem is the supreme feature in the world landscape today, and that it lies right across the path of the onward trek of mankind, makes the attack upon it as inescapable for us as it is fascinating.To concentrate a discussion of this vast world issue within the covers of a small book in a way that omits no vital consideration yet keeps a true perspective, while on the other hand avoiding the dismal dulness of the catalogue, would seem to be impossible. Yet no partial picture gives us the real dimensions or nature of the menace—and of the possibilities—that lie ahead. And it really is vital today that we should measure the issue. The attempt has therefore been made here.The reader will see what is in the the author is most of all conscious of what he has been forced by the rigid limits of inelastic pages to cut out. Yet he would not have had the impertinence to produce the book if it were not felt that even an imperfect attempt to get a vivid, accurate, balanced picture of this greatest of all problems confronting the new generation may have a real value if only as a pathfinder towards a fuller exploration.Years of thought, reading, and human contact lie behind the book. In addition, the unwearied patience of a group of friends who have corporately overhauled every page has greatly strengthened it in every part. To them the author owes a great debt of gratitude. He would also acknowledge indebtedness to the intense stimulus of Dr. Lothrop Stoddard’s The Rising Tide of Color, the brilliancy of whose presentation he admires as strongly as he challenges and traverses his conclusions.The argument of The Clash of Color first took shape in a series of lectures delivered in Belfast under the lectureship established by the Presbyterian Church in Ireland.If this small volume acts only as a porch through which the reader will enter on a wider and deeper study of the problem, such as will be found in Mr. J. H. Oldham’s Christianity and the Race Problem and in Mr. Robert E. Speer’s Of One Blood, the author will feel that it has fulfilled its function.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
