    68 - Oath of Afro-American Youth
    Jan 7 2026
    From the preface of the book Until now, there has been no anthology of stories and poems by Black writers that colored children could engage with and enjoy—one that reflects the traditions and aspirations of their community. This 1920 reader is a rich collection of works by a remarkable group of African-American writers, activists, and educators. It is our hope that this little book will be warmly received across the nation and will inspire and uplift the young readers who hold the future of their race in their hands. - Summary by kathrinee and the editors.
