W.E.B Du Bois' The Souls of Black Folk is a seminal work in the
field of sociology, a classic of American literature - and a solid
example of carefully-structured reasoning. One of the most
important texts ever written on racism and black identity in
America, the work contains powerful arguments that illustrate the
problem of the position of black people in the US at the turn of
the 20th-century. Du Bois identified three significant issues ('the
color line'; 'double consciousness'; and 'the veil') that acted as
roadblocks to true black emancipation, and showed how each of these
in turn contributed to the problem of inequality. Du Bois carefully
investigates all three problems, constructing clear explanations of
their significance in shaping the consciousness of a community that
has been systematically discriminated against, and dealing
brilliantly with counter-arguments throughout. The Souls of Black
Folk went on to profoundly influence the civil rights movement in
the US, inspiring post-colonial thinking worldwide.
