Über den Autor
Educator and author W. E. B. Du Bois was born on February 23, 1868, in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. An 1891 graduate of Harvard University, he taught at the University of Pennsylvania and at Atlanta University. In 1905 Du Bois became a founder of the Niagara movement, calling for full civil, political, and social rights for Black Americans. In 1909 he helped found the NAACP. A member of the Socialist Party from 1910 to 1912, Du Bois was also active in the peace movement. He joined the American Communist Party in 1961, convinced that it would provide the United States with a viable third party. That same year he took up residence in Ghana, Africa, becoming a citizen of that country in 1963. Du Bois died in Ghana on August 27, 1963. Du Bois published over one hundred articles and essays, and authored twenty-one books, including two novels: The Quest of the Silver Fleece (1911) and Dark Princess: A Romance (1928); a book of essays and poetry: Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil (1920); and histories of Black people: The Negro (1915), The Gift of Black Folk: Negroes in the Making of America (1924), Black Reconstruction in America, 1860-1880 (1935), and Black Folk, Then and Now (1939).
