Half A Man: The Status Of The Negro In New York is a non-fiction book written by Mary White Ovington, an American suffragist, abolitionist, and co-founder of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). The book was first published in 1911 and focuses on the social, economic, and political conditions of African Americans living in New York City during the early 20th century.Through a series of essays and interviews with African American residents of New York, Ovington sheds light on the discrimination, segregation, and prejudice faced by black individuals in the city. She explores the impact of Jim Crow laws, racial violence, and economic inequalities on the lives of African Americans, as well as the efforts of black leaders and activists to fight for their rights and improve their conditions.Half A Man provides a comprehensive and nuanced analysis of the experiences of African Americans in New York, highlighting both the challenges they faced and the resilience and strength of their communities. Ovington's work remains an important contribution to the study of race and racism in America, and a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggle for social justice and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
