The author examines every aspect of our country's post-Reconstruction retreat from equality: the economic factors, the Supreme Court decisions, Booker T. Washington and his \"Era of Compromise,\" and, in a unique and disturbing survey, the racist caricatures that dominated the most liberal newspapers and magazines of the day. Dispassionate and insightful, Logan unfolds a narrative of national betrayal as harrowing as it is heartbreaking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51365897404639,"sku":"9780306807589","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/72H1jMb8QX9780306807589.webp?v=1789073652"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/rayford-whittingham-logan.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
