Symbolizing The Past
I began this book because I've been a lot of Civil War history and CW fiction and hope to gain insight into those who were held in slavery. I got this classic 1912 history of the black race free on Kindle and was, frankly, expecting a dry read. I was pleasantly surprised and enlightened as I explored W.E.B. DuBois's account of his people's talents, religions and ever-expanding presence across Africa and, ultimately, around the world. Like a cheerleader, he praises as he informs and I get the feeling that it is the negro that he is trying to inform, indulge and teach of the greatness within themselves.
I recommend reading an actual paper book of The Negro because the Kindle version doesn't have the maps for easy reference that the real book contains.
