"Cham et Japhet, ou De l'émigration des nègres chez les blancs considérée comme…." by M. Ausone de Chancel is a complex and polemical treatise written in the mid-19th century. The work examines the themes of race, slavery, and colonization, arguing that the migration of Africans to the Americas was providentially designed to facilitate the moral and civilizational uplift of African peoples through servitude. It engages with philosophical, religious, and societal ideas surrounding slavery and race relations. The opening of the book introduces the perplexing legacy of slavery, contemplates the roles of religion and philosophy, and discusses the political impotence faced by European governments regarding the question of emancipation. It lays out a stark contrast between the hopes of moral regeneration through migration and the realities of oppression. The author draws on historical examples, including the emergence of the Liberian state and the turmoil in Haiti post-emancipation, establishing a platform to argue for the continued importance of the white colonial presence as a means of educating and uplifting the African race.
