justkeyana 's review for:

The Souls of Black Folk by W.E.B. Du Bois
4.0

This book was not what I expected it to be. It wasn't as "academically" written as I thought it would be although some sections are like that. Although it is a short book, it is one of those books that I felt the need to highlight and write down how I felt about certain sections. It was also an easy read despite being published in 1903. Much of what he said still proves true today and I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning more about the Black/African-American plight post-slavery.
