dbp:text
  • Bancroft's writings and work are riddled with contradictions, tensions, and ambiguities. For instance, while using the racist language of the day to discuss Chinese immigrants in the United States, Bancroft also opposed Chinese exclusion and spent pages of Retrospection excoriating Denis Kearney, one of the leaders of the anti-Chinese campaign in California. In a similar vein, he wrote unquestionably bigoted and offensive things about African Americans, while at the same time holding "anti-slavery" perspectives and coming from an abolitionist family. He was similarly dismissive of women, and yet interviewed Californio and Mormon women as part of his history project. (en)
