Educational text compiled by two African-American women, under the direction of Carter G. Woodson, "for extending the study of the Negro in the junior and senior high schools. As a rule, the study of this element of our population does not include much about its origin or about others of the same race in distant lands.We may be able thereby to make comparison of the opportunities for all peoples in certain countries in contra-distinction to the policies in lands where such advantages are denied" (from preface). A richly-illustrated volume, touching on prominent but unsung figures from Asia, Spain, France, England, the West Indies, and South America.

Contact seller5-star sellerdj. First Edition. [African American][World History] Fleming, Beatrice J., and Marion J. Pryde. Distinguished Negroes Abroad. Washington, D.C.: The Associated Publishers, 1946. First edition. Original brown cloth boards, in original pictorial dust jacket, printed in blue, cream, and black with stylized map motif. Issued by Carte…r G. Woodson's press The Associated Publishers, this work gathers biographical sketches of people of African descent whose lives and achievements took place outside the United States. Aimed particularly at secondary school students, the book was conceived by its authors (both District of Columbia public school teachers) as a supplement to the regular curriculum. Its purpose, as stated in the preface, was to broaden pupils' understanding of the contributions of Black figures across the globe, thereby placing the "study of the Negro" within an international comparative frame. The table of contents spans a wide geographic range including: "The Orient", covering Sakanouye Tamuramaro, Antar of Arabia, Bilal (Black Muezzin); Spain, covering Juan Latino, Sebastian Gomez, Juan de Pareja; France, covering Jean-Baptiste Lislet-Geoffroy, Le Chevalier de Saint-Georges, Alexandre Dumas (père and fils), Victor Séjour, Félix Éboué; England, covering Gustavus Vassa (Olaudah Equiano), Ignatius Sancho, Ira Aldridge, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor; Elsewhere in Europe, covering J. E. J. Captein, Anthony William Amo, Angelo Solimann, George Bridgetower, Abram Hannibal, Alexander Pushkin; The West Indies, covering Cudjoe (Jamaica), Toussaint Louverture, Alexandre Pétion, Plácido, Antonio Maceo, Edward Wilmot Blyden; and South America, covering: Henrique Diaz, Luiz Gama, José do Patrocínio, José Manuel Valdés. The volume introduces African American readers to a global Black diaspora and its intellectual, artistic, and political figures. It emphasizes resilience and achievement despite conditions of enslavement, colonialism, and racial oppression. Internally, very good: clean and sound, with only minor toning. Jacket with light wear at crown and foot, small closed tears, and evidence of old tape repairs. Very good condition in good only dust jacket. A significant educational publication that underscores Carter G. Woodson's mission to expand and institutionalize Black history within American pedagogy.
