Although W. E. B. Du Bois did not often pursue the connections
between the "Negro question" that defined so much of his
intellectual life and the "woman question" that engaged writers and
feminist activists around him, Next to the Color Line argues that
within Du Bois's work is a politics of juxtaposition that connects
race, gender, sexuality, and justice. This provocative collection
investigates a set of political formulations and rhetorical
strategies by which Du Bois approached, used, and repressed issues
of gender and sexuality. The essays in Next to the Color Line
propose a return to Du Bois, not only to reassess his politics but
also to demonstrate his relevance for today's scholarly and
political concerns. Contributors: Hazel V. Carby, Yale U; Vilashini
