Publisher's Summary

Langston delivers this speech at his old alma mater in 1874, touching on the topic of slavery in the United States. He addresses the president and friends on how the colored American has risen from being treated like a beast to an enfranchised man. His view is that the land is no longer ravaged by hate, but breeds a fraternal appreciation.
