Darkwater (1920)
A human document of extraordinary intensity and insight, dealing with the place of the darker races in the modern world.

The Souls of Black Folk (1903)
An extraordinarily vital and interesting book by an able advocate of his race's spiritual rights. Mr. Du Bois is a graduate of Harvard University and a professor in the University of Atlanta, and himself a man of great culture, he has always contended for the spiritual uplifting of the negro as opposed to Mr. Booker Washington's practical and material theories.
