this video has a lot of inaccuracies
Is Dubois being pronounced correctly?
W. E. B. Du Bois and his Relationship with Kwame Nkrumah
You guys know about Eric Dubois "200 Proofs"?
I cringe very time he mispronounces DuBois
Ingenious! At 2:20 we learn that the solution is flexible working hours. Why not bring an end to the cause of the problem which, for Sasha, is being a single mother. Did somebody point a gun at her head and threaten to pull the trigger if she didn't become a single mother? It is known that this culture of the household with the absent father is one of the leading causes of poverty as well as social problems.
now i can finish my essay
That's a terrible analogy for this book and what DuBois is trying to convey.
Dubois had Marcus Harvey deported with a lie. They hired a Haitian poison expert to poison Booker T Washington.
W.E.B. Dubois was a self hating sell out of the worst kind. Google everything I stated.
A copper skinned woman wrote an excellent book about who killed Booker T Washington and it was the Boule led by W.E.B. Dubois.
Very nice video. Thank you
The book is actually a seering indicement of Southern racism. Not a book about identity politics.
this simple video helped me a lot thank you.
Why does Sasha has to be a single mom? But that's the reality of today in 2016. Most Black women are single mothers. We should have listened and followed Booker T. Washington's theory of how Black people should make progress.
