Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book responds to a letter by Victor Hugo criticizing slavery in the U.S. The author, a prominent American, refutes Hugo's arguments, asserting slavery and freedom cannot exist in the same society. In considering emancipation from slavery, the text argues the need to consider the lives and freedoms of freed slaves in a society where deep-seated prejudice will determine their existence. Drawing on historical examples, the text argues that two distinct races living within the same nation have always resolved itself in the subjugation of one race by another. Exploring the history of free black people in the U.S., the text foresees a similar fate unless they emigrate. The author argues that Africa is their natural home, and the establishment of colonies there is the best solution for both the U.S. and for freed slaves. The text concludes by arguing that the perceived divine right to self-government expressed in the ideals upon which the U.S. was founded also present an imperative to end slavery.
