What reading level is The Problem in the South book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many of them are already beyond our help; all will be in less than lo years; and still they come marching up from the cradles into American citizenship.
The important question is, what are we in the South doing for these children? Let us see! Only 60 per cent of them were enrolled in the schools in 1900. The aver- age daily attendance was only 70 per cent of those enrolled. Only 42 per cent are actually at school. One half of the negroes get no schooling whatever. One white child in five is lef...t wholly illiterate. Careful analy- sis of the reports of state superintendents showing the attendance by grades, indicates that the average child, whites and blacks to- gether, who attends school at all stops with the third grade. In North Carolina the average citizen gets only 2.6 years, in South Carolina 2.5 years, in Alabama 2.4 years of schooling, both private and public. In the whole South the average citizen gets only 3 years of schooling of all kinds in his entire life; and what schooling it is!
