In 1980, following several race-related incidents, The Boston Committee was formed. The purpose of …

Slavery And Stratification, Lee Andrew Irving Jan 1971

Slavery And Stratification, Lee Andrew Irving

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

My own experience as an American have led to questions concerning stratification of Negroes by Whites and Negroes by Negroes. What, if any, is the history behind these social distinctions, based primarily on variables such as race and skin-color gradations?

Evidence as to achievements by people representing all races and skin-color gradations is more available today than say, during slavery, because of better opportunities for all citizens of this country to become informed vis the mass media.
