A Sojourn in the City of Amalgamation, in the Year of Our Lord, 19-- is a dystopian novel written by Jerome B. Holgate under the pseudonym Oliver Bolokitten. It was self-published by the author in New York in February 1835. The novel criticizes abolitionists by describing them as endorsers of "amalgamation", or interracial marriage. The narrator encounters a future city, Amalgamation (thought to be a future Philadelphia), where white people and black people have intermarried solely for the sake of racial equality, resulting in a dystopia. The work is one of the first uses of a satirical novel, speaking against interracial marriage and for black recolonization. Terrorism scholar J.M. Berger called it a "remarkably vituperative book", while academic David A. Bateman called it "extraordinarily racist". It is one of the earliest examples of a work of "racist dystopia", and as one of the first dystopian books generally.
