Colonel Thomas Wentworth Higginson '41 will deliver an address on the negro question entitled, "They are Intensely Human," before the Graduate Club at 8 o'clock in the Assembly Room of the Union.
Colonel Higginson will show how his two years of experience in command of the first regiment of freed slaves mustered in the United States service during the Civil War proved to him that "they are intensely human." He will explain that the points which separate the colored people from the whites are trivial as compared with those they have in common, and that it is by simply dealing with them as human beings that we shall do them and ourselves most justice.
The lecture, which may be found printed in the forthcoming May number of the Atlantic Monthly, will be open only to members of the Graduate Club.
