The bonds of friendship
John Stauffer's research shows that the golden age of interracial friendship in the 19th century took place from the 1840s to the 1860s, a time when radical abolitionists, both black and white, joined forces to defeat slavery. Before that time, interracial friendship hardly existed. (Staff photo Kris Snibbe/Harvard News Office)
