I added a 'Historical Context' section to the Francis Cecil Sumner page because it is important to understand the significance of Sumner's contributions to social psychology as an African American who faced certain hindrances due to the low social status of African Americans in the United States in the early 20th Century. In this section, the Wikipedia reader gets a broader understanding of the basis of which European Americans discriminated against Blacks.This section also adds further clarification as to why Sumner chose to focus his specific research area to understanding the basis of claims referring to the inferiority of Blacks. Overall, the reader gains a greater appreciation and understanding of the significance of Sumner's contributions considering the fact that he was a member of a historically de-valued and marginalized group yet still managed to achieve eminence in his field. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Agbracken (talk • contribs) 21:11, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
