Book Description
When first published in 1903, W.E.B. Du Bois’s The Souls of Black Folk struck like a thunderclap, quickly establishing itself as a work that wholly redefined the history of the black experience in America, introducing the now famous “problem of the color line.” In decades since, its stature has only grown, and today it ranks as one of the most influential and resonant works in the history of American thought.

This centennial edition contains a landmark Introduction by historian David Levering Lewis that brilliantly demonstrates how The Souls of Black Folk remains indispensable not only to an understanding of the history of race and democracy in America but to considerations of the future of racial and cultural comity in the twenty-first century.

hi sister bluewater

thanks 4 the compliment. i think i speak 4 the group when i say, those attending classes kno who the real force behing book chat is :spin:

nice try.

big ups 2 u sister 4 substituing on a particularly difficult chapter 2 digest. we appreciate ur efforts 2 keep book chat running orderly. thank u & thanks 2 'the voice' :love:

i wld like 2 post a few books 4 possible consideration as future selections:

black women in white america; a documented history, edited by gerder lerner

black voices (a classic compilation of essays, poems, & short stories)

here i stand; the autobio of paul robeson

parting the waters; taylor branch (i kno he's not black, but the book is outstanding)

crisis of the negro intellectual; harold cruise

i also hope added weight will b given 2 those books available online, or, commonly obtainable thru local public libraries.

thanks 2 bro $rich$ 4 volunteering 2 read chapter 11. i wld b pleased 2 read chapter 12, f we have no other volunteers 2 do so.

Am I understanding this correctly? People go online and have the book read aloud one chapter at a time? Oh wow, when do these chats take place? Are there archives of them?
