| Summary | "Wanted—Leaders! : A Study of Negro Development" by The Rt. Rev. Theodore DuBose Bratton, D. D. is a scholarly publication written in the early 20th century. The work addresses the historical and socio-cultural development of African peoples and their descendants, focusing especially on their evolution in various regions, including Africa, Liberia, and Haiti. It scrutinizes the influence of external factors, such as colonialism and the slave trade, on the development of the African diaspora while calling attention to the need for leadership and advancement within these communities. The opening of the book outlines the historical context of the African continent prior to significant external interference, detailing the diverse characteristics of various African tribes and peoples, and how their environments shaped their development. It introduces the concept of distinct family groups within the African race and hints at the later implications of slavery and colonization on these groups. Bratton sets the stage for a deeper examination of how these historical factors have shaped the present circumstances of Black communities, emphasizing the necessity for capable leadership to foster growth and development among African peoples.
