- - - - Men
        
        Horatio Alger's "Ragged Dick" How he describes Dick's nature as, "A noble one, and had saved him from all mean faults. I hope my young readers will like him as I do, without being blind to his faults. Perhaps, although he was only a boot-black, they may find
        something in him to imitate." Many books like this were made to show boys how to be better men.
        
        Theodore Roosevelt's “The American Boy”
        "OF COURSE what we have a right to expect of the American boy is that he shall turn out to be a good American man. Now, the chances are strong that he won't be much of a man unless he is a good deal of a boy. He must not be a coward or a weakling, a bully, a shirk, or a prig. He must work hard and play hard. He must be clean-minded and clean-lived, and able to hold his own under all circumstances and against all comers. It is only on these conditions that he will grow into the kind of American man of whom America can be really proud."
      - Women
        
        Sui Sin Far's “Its Wavering Image" "Pan, don’t you see that you have got to decide what you will be—
        Chinese or white? You cannot be both.”
        
        Charlotte Perkins Gilman's “The Yellow Wall-Paper” "Where the two sexes obtain their food under different conditions, and where that difference consists in one of them being fed by the other, then the feeding sex becomes the environment of the fed."
        
        Phyllis Schlafly, “What’s Wrong with Equal Rights for Women” "The claim that American women are downtrodden and unfairly treated is the fraud of the century. The truth is that American women never had it so good. Why should we lower ourselves to “equal rights” when we already have the status of special privilege?"
        
        Audre Lorde, “The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House” "It is learning how to take our differences and make them strengths. For the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house. They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. And this fact is only threatening to those women who still define the master's house as their only source of support."
    - - Carnegie's “The Gospel of Wealth” "This wealth, passes through the hands of the few, can be made much more potent force for the elevation of our race than if distributed in small sums to the people themselves. Even the poorest can be made to see this, and to agree..."
- - - - Excerpts from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, "He commenced to lay on the heavy cowskin, and soon the warm, red blood (amid heart-rending shrieks from her, and horrid oaths from him) came dripping to the floor. I was so terrified and horror-stricken at he sight, that I hid myself in a closet, and dared not venture out till long after the bloody transaction was over."
      - Discrimination
        
        Washington vs. Du Bois
        
        Booker T. Washington, “Atlanta Exposition Speech” and well as his "Five Fingers of the Hand" "In all things that are purely social we can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress.” Which highlights that separate but equal seems fair, and to "“Cast down your bucket where you are”— cast it down in making friends in every manly way of the people of all races by whom we are surrounded."
        
        W. E. B. Du Bois excerpts from "The Talented Tenth" "If we make money the object of man-training, we shall develop money-makers but not necessarily men...Men we shall have only as we make manhood the object of the work of the schools—intelligence, broad sympathy, knowledge of the world that was and is, and of the relation of men to it—this is the curriculum of that Higher Education which must underlie true life.
    - - E. A. Ross' "The Social Effects of Immigration" "Not until the twenty-first century will the philosophic historian be able to declare with scientific certitude that the cause of the mysterious decline that came upon the American people early in the twentieth century was the deterioration of popular intelligence by the admission of great numbers of backward immigrants."
      - Chinese Exclusion and Page Act "to ascertain whether such immigrant has entered into a contract or agreement for a term of service within the United States, for lewd and immoral purposes; and if there be such contract or agreement, the said consul-general or consul shall not deliver the required permit or certificate.”
    - - Henry Ford's The Ford Foundation, "Henry Ford and Antisemitism" "The most controversial and least admirable aspect of Ford’s career was his descent into anti-Semitism. Convinced that “bankers” and “the Jews” were responsible for a whole range of things he didn’t like, from the world war to short skirts to jazz music, Ford used his newspaper, the Dearborn Independent, to carry on an active anti-Semitic campaign. Between 1920 and 1922 a series of articles denounced all things Jewish."
