Darkwater by Web Du Bois
Du Bois' radical text is a rare statement of values formed around the vision of a collective life, where the humanity of black women and men is treated with dignity and equality. He expresses his themes through a series of literary forms: polemic essay, prayer, poetry and short science fiction.
W.E.B Du Bois (1868–1963) was a renowned essayist and early advocate for civil rights and social justice, as well as a sociologist, political revolutionary, writer and joint founder of the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People).
