THE SOULS OF BLACK FOLK by W.E.B. Du Bois, Chapter 12: "Of Alexander Crummel"

W.E.B. Du Bois is a major thinker in the American political thought tradition and had a towering influence upon the study of race and racism in the United States. However, we rarely take the time to appreciate the entire sweep of his classic work. Clinton Church Restoration's 14-week online community read of The Souls of Black Folk is moderated by Dr. Frances Jones-Sneed, historian, board member and chair of our Scholars Council. Each week, she is joined by a guest scholar for a presentation of a single chapter of Du Bois’ classic text, followed by a discussion with the audience.
