Add to basketSoftcover. Condition: Very Good. Vol. IV, No. 7. Small octavo. 98pp. Stapled wrappers. Wrappers toned with moderate wear and soil, corners gently bumped, a very good copy. A single but notable issue from this influential and important digest, which was the foundation of the Johnson Publishing empire. In addition to excerpting ar…ticles by and about African-Americans from other publications, there was also much original content written expressly for the magazine. This issue is especially notable for printing the articles "Love or Babies: Must Negro Mothers Choose?" by Margaret Sanger; "condensations" from Mbonue Ojike's *My Africa* and Erskine Caldwell's *In the Uplands*; and war correspondent W. Randy Dixon's article on Black WWII hero Corporal Waverly Woodson Jr.; and David O. Selznick's "Negro Lobby in Hollywood." The monthly article "If I Were A Negro" was penned by author and activist Fannie Cook, and titled "An Atomic Approach to Racism." An important magazine; early issues are uncommon.
