The novel begins with an excellent African-American medical student being denied the right to continue because, as a black, he is not permitted to do the required section on obstetrics. He flees the country and meets other colored people who hope to create a united body to work for their betterment. For personal reasons, he rejects their overtures and returns to the U.S., where he becomes an up-and-coming politician married to a wealthy, well-connected woman. After numerous setbacks, he reconnects with the other colored peoples who have a plan for a better future that will be developed over the coming fifteen years. There is, though, a disagreement, which, not resolved with in novel, between those who believe in violence as a means and those who reject it.\
