In your respective blogs, type out what your group thinks is the gap
In “Race Amalgamation” By Frederick Hoffman’s he says that if you mixture races it isn’t good. He talks about how rare it is for a white women to marry a African American man. The Gap of this book is that Hoffman is trying to get the point a crossed that it isn’t best to mix faces and to stay away from that. He feels it makes the black people look worse when they get with a white women. I feel the audience of the reader of this would be white people that believe it what he thinks. The audience agree that interbreeding isn’t normal. Others would be very offended by this, such as myself.
What do you and your group believe is Morgan’s claim, Morgan’s reason, and the type of evidence he produces to support this reason.
The claim is Hoffman’s main point which is negative stuff will just come out of mixing races, and it shouldn’t be happening unless you basically you want to be looked down upon.
The reasoning he wants people to think this is all true is by him making people think the races should stay separate. “infusion of white blood, through white males, has been widespread, and the original type of the African has almost completely disappeared” (Hoffman, 1997, pg. 78).
The evidence Hoffman has is that white and black mixing together is more prone to getting illnesses. He is showing off what his beliefs is.
The warrant is Hoffman knowing that is point is right and that he won’t change how he feels. And he believes that if he thinks this way everyone should.
The Rebuttal is that he wants his thoughts to be right and everyone to agree with him and follow the so called “rules” of mixing races.
