In "Right Above Race," Otto H. Kahn, a prominent banker and philanthropist, delivers a powerful statement on American identity and national unity during the tumultuous period of World War I. Writing in 1918, Kahn emphasizes the importance of shared ideals and loyalty to the United States, arguing that these bonds should transcend racial and ethnic divisions. This collection of essays and speeches reflects a passionate belief in the American experiment and a call for all citizens, regardless of their background, to place their allegiance to the nation "right above race."
Kahna?(TM)s work offers valuable insights into the social and political climate of early 20th-century America, grappling with questions of immigration, assimilation, and the meaning of patriotism. His perspective, as a naturalized citizen himself, provides a unique and compelling voice in the historical discourse on American identity. "Right Above Race" remains relevant today, prompting reflection on the ongoing quest for unity and common purpose in a diverse society.
