Excerpt from Following the Color Line: An Account of Negro Citizenship in the American Democracy My purpose in writing this book has been to make a clear statement Of the exact present conditions and relationships of the Negro in American life. I am not vain enough to imagine that I have seen all the truth, nor that I have always placed the proper emphasis upon the facts that I here present. Every investigator necessarily has his personal equation or point of view. The best he can do is to set down the truth as he sees it, without bating a jot or adding a tittle, and this I have done. I have endeavoured to see every problem, not as a Northerner, nor as a Southerner, but as an American. And Ihave looked at the Negro, not merely as a menial, as he is commonly re garded in the South, nor as a curiosity, as he is Often seen in the North, but as a plain human being, animated with his own hopes, depressed by his own fears, meeting his own problems with failure or success. I have accepted no statement of fact, however generally made, until I was fully persuaded from my own personal investigation that what I heard was really a fact and not a rumour.
