Printed leaflet of an address delivered by Washington at the annual meeting of the American Missionary Association. First page contains the New York address of the Missionary Association and a photograph of Washington. Text indicates that this is only part of Washington's presentation. Contents discuss race relations in America. Outlines the vast growth in academic opportunities for African-Americans since the Civil War, but stresses that much work still has to be done in funding schools for blacks: "There is sometimes much talk of the inferiority of the Negro. In practice, however, the idea appears to be that he is a sort of superman. He is expected, with about one-fifth or one-tenth of what the whites receive for their education, to make as much progress as they are making." Contains some marks in red pen.
