Evidences of progress among colored people

An encyclopedic collection of information on African American educational institutions and the people involved with those institutions managed by whites as well as by African Americans, also the important role various religious denominations have played in expanding educational opportunities for African Americans. In addition, sketches of successful African American individuals and institutions in the realms of business, law, journalism, health, and other professions. The author wanted to counteract the mistaken belief that African Americans have not made progress since emancipation and hoped to "stimulate a greater interest in these institutions and thereby help to bring the race up to a higher educational and social level."
