Introduction. The social and intellectual gifts of black folk : foundations and legacies of a humanistic democratic ethos -- "There will be a day of reckoning" : What is a slave? -- "I found that there were puzzling exceptions" : the economic foundations of race during slavery and Jim Crow -- In a cage of obscene birds : slavery's consequences for slaveholders and the nation -- "Cruelty is inseparable from slavery" : violence, rape, and the right of self-defense -- Democracy meets the industrial revolution : reconstruction achievements and the counterrevolution against them -- Ethical transmissions : consultations with the emancipation generation -- Ethical legacies for the twenty-first century : apologies, regrets, therapy, and reparations.
"Lynda Morgan builds an intellectual and social history of slave thought about labor and morality, and she traces elements through Reconstruction and the civil rights movement. She concludes her manuscript by connecting this legacy to reparations arguments and apologies for slavery that continue in the present day"--Provided by publisher
