Initially published in 1920, Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil
is a combination of essays that tackle the power dynamics of
gender, race and religion. It’s a searing portrait of America
influenced by Du Bois’ own personal experiences. Du Bois delivers
a contemporary examination of African American life during the
first half of the twentieth century. He addresses issues of
segregation, employment disparity and misogyny, specifically toward
Black women. Darkwater: Voices from within the Veil is one of his
prominent autobiographies, detailing internal and external
conflicts and their effect on the whole. He presents an overall
indictment of systemic racism, oppression and exploitation of any
kind. W.E.B. Du Bois was a celebrated figure who dedicated his life
to uplifting and educating the African American community.
Darkwater: Voices from within the Veil is a critical part of his
enduring legacy. It broaches tough topics and presents a valid
critique of American culture. With an eye-catching new cover, and
professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Darkwater:
Voices from within the Veil is both modern and readable.
