Description

As we continue in this informative book by W.E.B. Du Bois, I continue to find myself thinking how much I would have enjoyed meeting him. In chapter 5 we read of the growth in black education in the south. Mr. Du Bois speaks of a great evil that rest upon our civilization to this day, the evil of money. He speaks of the purpose of not just black universities but all universities and the role they should play in life. We see that early on, the great realization that not all humans are meant for scholarly studies but instead need trades, is understood. This is a thought that has been forgoten for to long and now raises it's ugly head in this day.

Everyone loves a good story that can awaken their imagination. Join me as I journey through time and place through books offered in public domain. I will be reading stories that have fascinated the minds of multiple generations, many of which are considered literary classics. Banned or unbanned makes no difference, the stories will be told. It is time to set our imaginations free and become "thinkers" again.
