What reading level is The Autobiography of An Ex-Colored Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is my opinionthat the colored people of this country have done four things whichrefute the oft-advanced theory that they are an absolutely inferiorrace, which demonstrate that they have originality and artisticconception, and, what is more, the power of creating that which caninfluence and appeal universally. The first two of these are the UncleRemus stories, collected by Joel Chandler Harris, and the Jubileesongs, to which the Fisk singers made the public and the skilledmusicians of both Am...erica and Europe listen. The other two are ragtimemusic and the cake-walk. No one who has traveled can question theworld-conquering influence of ragtime, and I do not think it would bean exaggeration to say that in Europe the United States is popularlyknown better by ragtime than by anything else it has produced in ageneration. In Paris they call it American music. The newspapers havealready told how the practice of intricate cake-walk steps has takenup the time of European royalty and nobility.
