Abstract

abstract:A memorial in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park in Northern California continued to honor the name of Madison Grant (1865–1937) until 2021. De Forest Grant (Madison’s younger brother), John D. Rockefeller Jr., the New York Zoological Society, and others dedicated the monument in 1948. Madison Grant’s most well-known book, The Passing of the Great Race (1916), became the basis for monumental atrocities leading up to and during World War II. This article explores Grant’s racist legacy and claims he made that successfully convinced lawmakers to pass legislation restricting the rights of non-White peoples and immigrants. His book and the ideas it contained continue to serve as a basis for hate and exclusion in the United States.

摘要：北加利福尼亚州草原溪红木州立公园的一座纪念碑继续纪念麦迪逊·格兰特（1865–1937）的名字，直到2021年。德福雷斯特·格兰特（麦迪逊的弟弟）、小约翰·D·洛克菲勒、纽约动物学会和其他人于1948年为纪念碑揭幕。麦迪逊·格兰特最著名的书《伟大种族的逝去》（1916年）成为二战前和二战期间巨大暴行的基础。这篇文章探讨了格兰特的种族主义遗产，以及他成功说服立法者通过限制非白人和移民权利的立法的主张。他的书及其所包含的思想继续成为美国仇恨和排斥的基础。
