W. E. B. Du Bois was a public intellectual, sociologist, and activist on behalf of the African American community. He profoundly shaped black political culture in the United States through his founding role in the NAACP, as well as internationally through the Pan-African movement. Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period. Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. "Herein lie buried many things which if read with patience may show the strange meaning of being black here in the dawning of the Twentieth Century." More than one hundred years after its first publication in 1903, The Souls of Black Folk remains possibly the most important book ever penned by a black American. This collection of previously published essays and one short story, on topics varying from history to sociology to music to religion, expounds on the African American condition and life behind the "Veil," the world outside of the white experience in America. This important collection holds a mirror up to the face of black America, revealing its complete form, slavery, Jim Crow, and all. With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by Arnold Rampersad, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.
The Souls of Black Folk: Introduction by Arnold Rampersad
The Souls of Black Folk isboth a groundbreaking work of sociology and an influential cornerstone of African-American literature. From the moment it was published in 1903, this unique and stirring blend of history, essay, fiction, and memoir set the terms of the conversation about race in America and established W. E. B. Du Bois's enduring reputation as poet, prophet, and scholar. Du Bois famously named "the problem of the color line" that still haunts us today and diagnosed the "double consciousness" of a people forced to live behind a veil. In raising that veil, his book makes an impassioned claim for the power and potential of black culture, the accomplishments of its art, the depths of its spirituality, and its capacity for grandeur in thought and expression. With the lyricism of his prose and the ease with which he moves from the immediacy of journalism and sociology to the permanence of literature, Du Bois transforms a profound historical dilemma into the matter of art. But more importantly, by tracing the tragic past that led to the inequities of the present, he outlined the way forward in the struggle for freedom. It is a testament to his prescience that after more than a century his masterpiece retains its relevance and uncompromising power.

Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. In Black Folk Then and Now, W. E. B. Du Bois embarks on a mission to correct the omissions, misinterpretations, and deliberate lies he detected in previous depictions of black history. An exemplary revisionist exploration of history and sociology, this essay reflects Du Bois's lifelong mission to bring to light the truths of Black history and expose the African peoples' noble heritage. W. E. B. Du Bois writes extensively about the color line, which he believed at the time of publication to be the defining problem of the twentieth century. In 1946, following the Holocaust, Du Bois revised his arguments, reshaping them into the narrative we find in The World and Africa. With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by Wilson Moses, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.

W. E. B. Du Bois’s seminal work, The Souls of Black Folk, not only captures the experience of African Americans in the years following the Civil War but also speaks to contemporary conditions. At a time when American public schools are increasingly re-segregating, are increasingly underfunded, and are perhaps nearly as separate and unequal as they were in earlier decades, this classic can help readers grasp links between a slavery past and a dismal present for too many young people of color. Disagreeing with Booker T. Washington, Du Bois analyzes the restrictiveness of education as a simple tool to prepare for work in pursuit of wealth (a trend still very much alive and well, especially in schools serving economically disadvantaged students). He also, however, demonstrates the challenges racism presents to individuals who embrace education as a tool for liberation. Du Bois’s accounts of how racism affected specific individuals allow readers to see philosophical issues in human terms. It can also help them think deeply about what kind of moral, social, educational and economic changes are necessary to provide all of America’s young people the equal opportunity promised to them inside and outside of schools.
Education Is Power: A Snippet of the Life of W.E.B. Du Bois
Education Is Power is a picture book about civil rights activist W.E.B. Du Bois and it shows the heights that children can go through utilizing the power of their mind. This power, found through education, led Du Bois to become a leader, an author, a humanitarian, an activist, and an influential figure who made an impact in the world. As the seventh installment of Melanin Origins' Black History Series, Education is Power encourages children that they can accomplish what they put their mind to through the power of education.
Das Problem Der Color-Line Aus Der Sicht Von W.E.B. Du Bois
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Politik - Internationale Politik - Region: USA, Note: 1,3, Christian-Albrechts-Universit t Kiel (Sozialwissenschaften), Veranstaltung: American Political Thought, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "The The Problem of the 20th century is the problem of the Color-line" . Dieses ist die These die W.E.B. Du Bois in seinem Buch "The Souls of the Black Folks" aufstellt. Besonders in der Zeit der Emanzipation war die Beziehung der Afroamerikaner zu den wei en Amerikanern, die zuvor durch die Besitzverh ltnisse der Sklaverei geregelt worden war, von besonderer Bedeutung und Brisanz. Genau zu dieser Zeit lebte der afroamerikanische Schriftsteller, Soziologe und B rgerrechtler William Edward Burghardt Du Bois, der sich prinzipiell mit der Situation der Farbigen in den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika besch ftigte. In seinem Hauptwerk geht er genau auf diesen Konflikt ein, untersucht dessen Ursachen und zeigt m gliche L sungsans tze auf. In dieser Arbeit wird erl utert, wie Du Bois die These des Problems der Rassentrennung entwickelte und auf deren folgende Probleme eingegangen. Au erdem wird aufgezeigt, welche L sungsans tze Du Bois zur Bew ltigung des Problems bef rwortete. Diese L sungsans tze f hrten zu dem Konflikt mit dem anderen m chtigen Afroamerikaner Booker T. Washington. Um die unterschiedlichen Standpunkte dieser beiden prominenten Vertreter der farbigen Amerikaner verstehen zu k nnen, ist es wichtig sich die unterschiedlichen Lebenswege dieser beiden M nner bewusst zu machen, die ich aus diesem Grund kurz skizziert werden. Au erdem wird darauf eingegangen welche Bedeutung Du Bois' Ideen und Konzepte auch heute noch haben.

He profoundly shaped black political culture in the United States through his founding role in the NAACP, as well as internationally through the Pan-African movement. Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period. Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. Considered a sequel to Du Bois's wildly popular The Souls of Black Folks, Darkwater revisits many of the same themes with a more militant edge, even revising previously published essays and poems to include in this newer volume. Published in 1920, Darkwater focuses on the political climate following World War I. In ten carefully crafted chapters, Du Bois explores the important issues of that period- labor, capital, politics, gender, education, and international relations-in tandem with an overarching theme of race. Blending lyrical autobiography with political thoughts and even poetry, Du Bois makes a powerful, forceful argument regarding race and the color line. With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.

Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period.

Published posthumously in 1968, The Autobiography of W. E. B. Du Bois is his last and most complete autobiography. Covering his life over almost a century of living in America, it's the closest thing we have to a true autobiography of this important scholar and activist. The book, broken up into three parts, delves into the 90-year-old Du Bois's thoughts on everything from his relationship with sex to his storied association with the NAACP to his political persecution during the Cold War years to his many travels abroad. As Du Bois writes, he takes the reader on a journey to "view my life as frankly and fully as I can." With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by Werner Sollors, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.
