Book excerpt: Excerpt from The African Repository, and Colonial Journal, Vol. 10: March, 1834 Our first proposition is then, as we think, fairly drawn and fully sustain ed, that to the colonists, Liberia is a substantial blessing. Whether the prejudice which depresses the African in this country he cruel or just, a safe retreat from its frown should be hailed with thankfulness. Here an objection meets us that deserves a distinct consideration. It is insisted, that the Colonization Society is itself an obstruction in the way of African elevation in this country; that it helps to maintain the distinction of colour, and seriously Opposes the progress of emancipation.
