Summarized & Analyzed: "The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man"

by Student World

When the book “The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man” was first published in 1912, James Weldon, the author, did not give it his name. The book was published anonymously, as the author mentioned later, because the author did not want to have his job affected. He did not sign his name because his diplomatic career would be threatened, as he was a biracial man.
