maxfetter 's review for:
The Souls of Black Folk
by W.E.B. Du Bois
Methodical yet personal and evocative, Du Bois was an amazing writer who shared a lot of specific information on reconstruction and religion's roles in black communities that I was previously unaware of. I learned as much historically as I did sociologically. Tragically, his subjects are still highly relevant... from his work on the post-bellum continuance of wage, political, and emotional slavery of blacks into today's racist and corrupt prison system, the United States (the South in particular) is just slapping new names on slavery. Now it's time for me to finally get to The New Jim Crow.
