Library of Congress photo Du Bois, W.E.B. W.E.B. Du Bois, pronounced doo BOYS, (1868-1963), was one of the most important leaders of African American protest in the United States. During the first half of the 1900's, he became the leading black opponent of racial discrimination. He also won fame as a historian and sociologist. Historians still use Du Bois' research on blacks in American society. Du Bois was probably the first African American to express the idea of Pan-Africanism. Pan-Africanism is the belief that all people of African descent have common interests and that they should work together to conquer prejudice. In 1900, Du Bois predicted that humanity's chief problem of the new century would be "the color line." William Edward Burghardt Du Bois was born in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. He graduated from Fisk University in 1888. In 1895, he became the first African American to receive a Ph.D. degree at Harvard University. From 1897 to 1910, Du Bois taught history and economics at Atlanta University. He attended the First Pan-African Conference in London in 1900. He later organized Pan-African conferences in Europe and the United States. Du Bois received the Spingarn Medal in 1920.

We saved it in France, and by the Great Jehovah, we will save it in the United States of America, or know the reason why. W.E.B. Du Bois, who lived in a now demolished house on this site for the first 17 years of his life, was a voice that inspired African Americans to believe in themselves and to fight for justice. Du Bois felt a special bond to the Great Barrington property, which had been in his family for more than 200 years. During his adult life he frequently used it as a retreat. He was a sage who motivated black activists to use "organization"not "apology"against white oppression. Du Bois' 1903 book The Souls of Black Folk especially the essay "The Talented Tenth"established his reputation as a writer. He wrote more than 20 books and hundreds of essays and pamphlets, covering topics ranging from history, to education, to segregation, to poor housing, and to the subjugation of black women.

Vol. XVII, Issue 17 for the Amherst campus of the University of Massachusetts January 18, 2002 Du Bois elected to Georgia Writers Hall of Fame by Emily Silverman , special to the Chronicle .E.B. Du Bois was one of 12 writers inducted as charter members into the Georgia Writers Hall of Fame on Dec. 13. The posthumous award was announced at a ceremony at the University of Georgia's Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library, the home of the hall of fame. The UGA Libraries established the hall to recognize past and present Georgia writers whose work reflects the character of the state, its land, and its people, and to honor Georgia writers for their overall contributions. Du Bois (1868-1963), a Massachusetts native, spent nearly a quarter century at Atlanta University in Georgia, as a professor of history and sociology (1897-1910), and as head of the sociology department (1934-44). Du Bois's writings and his intellectual guidance as a teacher, researcher, and editor at Atlanta University contributed immensely to his reputation as a preeminent resource for the study of race in America. Between 1897 and 1910, he directed annual conferences that produced a series of landmark studies - published as the "Proceedings of the Annual Conferences of the Negro Problem" - which he edited. In 1903, he published his classic collection of essays, "The Souls of Black Folk." Du Bois spent 23 years as editor of The Crisis, the publication of the NAACP, which he helped to found. When he returned to Atlanta in 1934, he became the first editor-in-chief of the University's scholarly review of race and culture, Phylon.

W. E. B. Du Bois (1868-1963) In 1897 Du Bois made a famous statement on the ambiguity of the black identity: "One ever feels his two-nessan American, a Negro, two souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled strivings, two warring ideals in one dark body." He advanced these views even further in The Souls of Black Folk (1903), a powerful collection of essays in which he described some of the key themes of the black experience, especially the efforts of black Americans to reconcile their African heritage with their pride in being U.S. citizens. With The Souls of Black Folk , Du Bois had begun to challenge the leadership of Booker T. Washington, a fellow educator who was then the most influential and admired black in the United States. Du Bois objected to Washington's strategy of accommodation and compromise with whites in both politics and education. Du Bois perceived this strategy as accepting the denial of black citizenship rights. He also criticized Washington's emphasis on the importance of industrial education for blacks, which Du Bois felt came at the expense of higher education in the arts and humanities. Du Bois also challenged Washington's leadership through the Niagara Movement, which Du Bois helped to convene in 1905. The movement grew out of a meeting of 29 black leaders who gathered to discuss segregation and black political rights. They met in Canada after being denied hotel accommodations on the U.S. side of Niagara Falls and drafted a list of demands. These included equality of economic and educational opportunity for blacks, an end to segregation, and the prohibition of discrimination in courts, public facilities, and trade unions.

Du Bois Correspondence: Du Bois in Context Anthony Bliss, Rare Book Librarian, Bancroft Library One of the often overlooked shortcomings of collecting a famous person's papers is that most of the time a repository only receives one side of the correspondence. The letters that the "famous person" wrote were sent off to someone else, and that corpus of material is therefore scattered. Sometimes, famous people keep copies of outgoing letters, but it is rarely systematic. This little meditation comes up in the case of W.E.B. Du Bois (1868-1963), one of our major African American leaders. His long life and boundless energy brought him into contact with key figures from Booker T. Washington to the civil rights activists of the early 1960s. Most of the Du Bois papers are at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, but a significant group of his letters has recently turned up in San Francisco and come to Bancroft.

The Story of Du Bois, W.E.B Du Bois, W. E. B. (1868-1963), black American historian and sociologist, who conducted the initial research on the black experience in the United States. His work paved the way for the civil rights, Pan-African, and Black Power movements in the United States. In 1897 Du Bois made a famous statement on the ambiguity of the black identity: "One feels his two-ness-an American, a Negro, two souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled strivings, two warring ideals in one dark body." He advanced these views even further in The Souls of Black Folk (1903), a powerful collection of essays in which he described some of the key themes of the black experience, especially the efforts of black Americans to reconcile their African heritage with their pride in being U.S. citizens. In the 1930s he became a socialist, convinced that economic equality preceded racial equality. In 1951 he was declared a subversive by the United States government. Du Bois subsequently left the United States, settled in the African nation of Ghana, and renounced his American citizenship. He died in 1963. International Activities Throughout his adult life, Du Bois maintained a keen cultural and political interest in Africa. He attended meetings with Africans in London in 1900 and 1911, and beginning in 1919 he helped to organize Pan-African congresses to nurture worldwide unity among people of African descent. He attended Pan-African congresses in 1921, 1923, 1927, and 1945, by which time international leaders opposed to colonialism were calling him the "father of Pan-Africanism." Du Bois returned to the NAACP in 1944 to head its research efforts, but was dismissed in 1948 after a dispute with the NAACP's executive director, in which Du Bois accused the director of selling out the cause of black civil rights for his own political advancement.

Du Bois edited by Herbert Aptheker Taken together, these ten essays cover half a century during which the social, political, and technological transformations were unparalleled by any in recorded history. And while Du Bois reflects these changes, certain constants persist: a demand for excellence, sacrifice, and a life of service; and an insistence that while such a life will bring hardships and temptations, it will also bring fulfillment. In Du Bois's view, only with such a life will one truly live. In this affirmation, there runs a particular feeling that the history of African Americans has profoundly influenced their ideas about service, of compassion, of justice. Though containing speeches written nearly one-hundred years ago, and on a subject that has seen more stormy debate and demagoguery than almost any other in recent history, The Education of Black People approaches education with a timelessness and timeliness, at once rooted in classical thought that reflects a remarkably fresh and contemporary relevance.

W.E.B.Du Bois,(1868-1963),was one of the foremost,early leaders in the struggle for racial equality in the United States.He was a scholar, an activist, a co-founder of the Niagara Movement and the NAACP, and the crusading editor of The Crisis .From his home in Massachusetts,his first educational journey away from New England took him to Fisk University in Nashville. For the first time,he experienced the South,where he observed many achievements of the Reconstruction period disappearing. After graduation,he received a scholarship to Harvard University where his efforts were rewarded with further study at the University of Berlin. It was there that he became a convert to the new science of sociology. Following his return to America,Du Bois produced the monumental Philadelphia Negro ,the first scientific study of urban blacks in America.As a social scientist, Du Bois used the objective method of his profession to challenge discriminatory ideologies and institutions and to advocate social change. Not always in agreement with his fellow activists about how to create the changes necessary to provide equality, Du Bois remained a strong advocate for high achievement and intellectual pursuits. This traveling exhibit,prepared by the W.E.B.Du Bois Library at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, contains documents culled from the extensive materials in the library ’s DuBois Collection (http://www.library.umass.edu/spcoll/dbpapers.html). It provides a biographical overview of Du Bois’life and deals with his intellectual achievements and the highlights of his career. The materials are largely photographs,but they include information on Du Bois’ life and work, along with graphics from the collection and facsimiles of significant documents.
