What reading level is Letter On Colonization Addressed to the Rev Thornton J Mills Corresponding S book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now, sir, if all these instances of colonization in modern times, undertaken under the most favorable circumstances, and by some of the most pious and distinguished men, have utterly miscarried in the work of Christianizing and civilizing the heathen, what can be urged to encourage the expectation that the colony of Liberia, or any other nominally Christian colony, planted on the coast of Africa, will be permanently beneficial to the aborigines of that continent ?
But I am encountered here with... an exception to the theory es- tablished by these facts : — The European colonists differed in color from the natives of countries where they established them- selves ; whereas the negro colonist of this country goes to Africa with all the advantages of similar color and physical conforma- tion. I grant, that this circumstance did at one time appear to me entitled to considerable weight ; but the testimony of Govern- or Pinney, united to other testimony of the same character, show- ing the relation of the colonists and the natives, has very much diminished its weight, and furnished, agreeably to my apprehen- sion, reasons for believing there are causes as completely repul- sive between the native African and the colonist from the United States, as any that can be found in color or form.
