Judge Tourgee on Southern race progress and property gains
Judge Albion W. Tourgee argues that in ten years African Americans acumulated 12 million dollars in savings, now own 100 million in property, and hold significant economic and social ties in the South. He notes Georgia's one million acres owned by blacks, and that half the South’s mechanics are black while they produce two thirds of cotton.
