"From time to time requests have come to the offices of the National Council of the Y.M.C.A. for a book of brief biographical sketches of Negroes who are achieving distinction along business, professional, and artistic lines. Most of these requests have come from leaders of white boys' and girls' clubs who desired to promote better interracial understanding, and leaders of colored groups who desired to stimulate the race pride of colored youth." ---- from the Foreword..
