Summary "The Negro in the United States; a selected bibliography" compiled by Dorothy B. Porter is a scholarly bibliography written in the late 20th century. This work catalogs a vast array of literary and scholarly sources focusing on the history, culture, and contributions of African Americans. It serves as a resource for students, teachers, researchers, and the general public interested in exploring the varied aspects of the African American experience in the United States. The opening of the bibliography establishes the historical context for its compilation by detailing the efforts of Daniel Alexander Payne Murray, a librarian who meticulously gathered works by Black authors for an exhibit at the Paris Exposition of 1900. This initial overview emphasizes the importance of preserving and promoting the contributions of African Americans in literature and history. The subsequent sections of the bibliography are organized under broad subject headings that cover various topics relevant to African American life, such as civil rights, education, and social conditions, while also listing significant works and authors that have influenced these fields.
