Third chapter «Black people»

The last period in history that has known slavery was that which witnessed the white man enslaving the black race. This period shall remain vivid in the minds of the black people until they regain their self-respect. This tragic historical phenomenon that is painful to remember, and the black people’s psychological search for a satisfactory way to deal with this past and to regain self-respect, is a psychological incentive that cannot be disregarded in the movement of the black race to avenge itself and triumph. In addition, there are inevitable cycles of social history: the yellow race’s domination of the world, when it came from Asia, and the white race’s attempts at colonizing extensive areas of all continents of the world. Now, it is the turn of the black race to re-emerge. The black race is at present in a dire and backward social condition. This backwardness is working in the interest of the numerical superiority of this race. Their low standard of living has rendered these people immune from knowledge of methods of birth control and its regulation. Their backward social traditions are responsible for the absence of restrictions in marriage leading to an unchecked and high birth rate. This is at a time when other races are diminishing in number as a result of the practice of birth control and other restrictions in the laws of marriage, as well as a preoccupation with work; this is in contrast to the black people whose lassitude is due to living in constantly hot climate.
