W.E.B. Du Bois and Race: Essays Celebrating the Centennial Publication of the Souls of Black Folk (Voices of the African Diaspora)

This collection of essays emerged from a symposium held at Mercer University which examined the ways in which W. E. B. DuBois's theories of race have shaped racial discussion and public policy in the twentieth-century. The essays also examine the application of Du Bois's theories to the new millennium, as well as his contributions to the study of the humanities.
