Description

A Review of Hoffman's Race Traits and Tendencies of the American Negro by Kelly Miller is a critical examination of the racial theories proposed by scientist and eugenicist Karl Friedrich Hoffmann. Published in 1905, Miller, an esteemed African American scholar and advocate for civil rights, challenges Hoffmann's conclusions that characterize African Americans as intellectually inferior and socially deficient. Through a rigorous analysis, Miller argues against the deterministic views presented in Hoffmann's work, emphasizing the significant role of environment, education, and systemic discrimination in shaping the experiences and capabilities of African Americans. Miller's response not only refutes Hoffmann's claims but also underscores the resilience and potential of the African American community. This review serves as a powerful defense of racial dignity and intelligence, advocating for a more nuanced understanding of race that transcends mere biological determinism. Through eloquent prose and robust argumentation, Miller establishes himself as a pivotal voice in the early 20th-century discourse on race and identity.
