Darkwater: Voices From Within the Veil (audiobook)

W. E. B. Du Bois, one of the greatest voices of the American experience, was born just after the end of the Civil War, was the first black American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard, founded the NAACP in 1909, and lived to the beginnings of the modern civil rights movement in the early 1960s. In the middle of his long life, he published Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil, a deeply thoughtful reflection on how black Americans were still struggling under the weight of Jim Crow and backlash from Reconstruction.
