George Armstrong Custer argues that the Negro problem persists in America, urging Christian-based education as the just, necessary, and feasible solution. He contends education fosters morality, patriotism, and political equality, argues for state and national support, and cites Booker T. Washington’s Tuskegee as evidence of Negro potential and progress.
