The Negro


Gelesen von Jim Locke

(4 Sterne; 4 Bewertungen)

Nevertheless, I have not been able to withstand the temptation to essay such short general statement of the main known facts and their fair interpretation as shall enable the general reader to know as men a sixth or more of the human race. Manifestly so short a story must be mainly conclusions and generalizations with but meager indication of authorities and underlying arguments. - Summary by the author (5 hr 35 min)

The Negro


(4 Sterne)

This book is serves as a testament to Du Bois’ in depth study of negro race. The only deduction comes from the reader. The pace at which he reads is a bit hurried, and fails to highlight particular points of fact.

Questionable accuracy


(3 Sterne)

Unfortunately reader read to fast and was difficult to understand. Arthur’s crediting sub-Saharan African influence on Egypt, Middle Eastern and European development seems exaggerated. No mention was made of author’s research or sources.

Reveals misconceptions


(4 Sterne)

I thoroughly enjoyed the book but I had a difficult time listening to the reader. He was monotonous in his reading.
