Niko, you are right on when you say that Du Bois pointed out the contradictions in American society. You may want to read more of Du Bois's writings via the links in the post, but I'd also take a look at Edward J. Blum's book. I think you might enjoy it.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853976805605495345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1337235421269803911.post-3793922464740236442008-01-17T19:31:00.000-06:002008-01-17T19:31:00.000-06:00You had a very interesting discussion and I seem t...You had a very interesting discussion and I seem to have gained a few more people to research when it comes to theology and over deep thought considering so many names were referenced in those conversations. Yes Du Bois did see the double standards but undortunately whenever a person points out such standards they rarely recieve a warm reception. However I admire such people because they don't sugar coat the ugly side of life and say what they mean. I adopted that line of thinking long ago and I love reading about famous people who have made it far in life by not compromising and not backing down. I have enjoyed what I have learned about Du Bois and I hope to learn more through discussion in class later.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09433975635880693481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1337235421269803911.post-18581526133074211382008-01-17T17:25:00.000-06:002008-01-17T17:25:00.000-06:00I like learning about Du Bois.

Although his beliefs are commonly misunderstood, he stood strong in everything he believed in. I hope to learn more about him and his many acheivements. <BR/> ps:The smartboard is cool! <BR/> pss:Love the Du Bois doll!!<BR/> -shelbyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
