Introduction
THE JULIUS ROSENWALD FUND HAS BEEN RECEIVING REQUESTS
from individuals and agencies all over the country for sug-
gested reading materials on various aspects of Negro life.
This list of books, pamphlets, and articles was compiled to
provide helpful answers to’ such requests.
It was suggested that the bibliography could be more
widely useful if, references on other minorities were listed.
Therefore, the titles under the first five sections are concerned
with many such groups, including Negroes, and with rela-
tions between majority and minority groups. The remainder
of the list‘ is devoted to specialized reading on Negroes and
Negro-white relations.
With the exception of the titles under “Race and Cul-
ture", which apply to peoples everywhere, and “Books for
Young Americans", which include references to young people
of other lands, the bibliography is limited to racial and cul-
tural relations within the United States. Titles useful for
high school students are preceded by an asterisk.
The list is selective rather than comprehensive. The
selection was made on the basis of authenticity, readability,
and date of publication—the more recent materials being
given preference. Since the bibliography is intended for the
general reader and student, highly technical and academic
materials have been omitted, except in cases where they con-
stitute the only adequate source of information on the
subject.
Individuals with wide knowledge of the several fields
were asked to list and annotate the best materials. Addi-
tional selections were drawn from such bibliographies as
Ambrose Caliver's Source; of Inrtruetienal Materials on Negroes,
Charlemae Rollins’ We Build To ether, the lists distributed by
the Bureau for Intercultural E ucation, and others. Items
3
not already known to the compiler were then read for evalu-
ation and annotation. The revised lists were submitted to
authorities in each field, and by a synthesis of their judg-
ments the final list was compiled.
Grateful acknowledgment is made of the cooperation of
the following persons: William Van Til, Director of Publi-
cations, Bureau for Intercultural Education, who prepared
the section on intercultural education; and Louis Adamic,
Mildred L. Batchelder, Paul Cornely, John H. Franklin,
Giles Hubert, L. D. Reddick, Corienne K. Robinson, Lyle
Saunders, M. M. Tozier, and Forrester Washington, who
supplied references in the fields of their special interest.
For checking and appraising the different sections, my
thanks herewith to Ruth Benedict, B. F. Bullock, Ambrose
Caliver, John A. Davis, Charles S. Johnson, Helen E. Kinsey,
Alain Locke, Benjamin E. Mays, Hortense Powdermaker,
George N. Redd, Charlemae Rollins, and Charles H. Thomp-
son. For suggestions on the work as a whole, I am indebted
to Ama Bontemps, Librarian, Fisk University; Eileen Dug-
gan, Editor, The Booklist, American Library Association;
and Alice Farquhar, Chief, Adult Education Division, Chi-
cago Public Library.
