Solving America's Race Problem

White, Walter | January 9, 1929 issue

The most significant gesture ever made in these U.S. toward solution of the race problem in America occurred at Washington. For the first time representatives of the most conservative groups met with those whose stand on the race problem is much further toward the left. For three and a half days the Right and the Left, and those between the two extremes, from the North and from the South, whites and Negroes, discussed aspects of race relations in a manner which varied from extreme caution to complete frankness. Very little, if anything, new was said either in the formal speeches or the discussions.
