Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy and Race Friction: A Study in Social Ethics As would be naturally expected, by far the greater amount of the illustrative material for the principles laid down has been drawn from the relations of the whites and blacks in the southern states, where long residence has given the writer first-hand acquaint ance with the facts. Free use has been made, how ever, of data in connection with the relations of whites and blacks in the English colonies, especially in Jamaica and South Africa. The attitude of the whites of the Pacific coast towards the Chinese and Japanese convinces the writer that his conclusions hold not only for the negro, but for all races differ ing fundamentally from the general ethnic type of American citizenship.
