Opis

Darkwater: Voices From Within the Veilis a literary work byW.E.B. Du Bois. Published in 1920, the text incorporates autobiographicalinformation as well asessays, spirituals, andpoemsthat were all written by Du Bois himself.

Written when he was 50, Darkwateris the first of Du Bois's three autobiographies.

Du Bois maintained that the book was written to develop an understanding of the complications of thecolor-linewith emphasis on its political implications.

""I venture to write again on themes on which great souls have already said greater words, in the hope that I may strike here and there a half-tone, newer even if slighter, up from the heart of my problem and the problems of my people.""

Darkwateropens with "Credo," which was frequently reprinted. It was written in style similar to aChristiancreedand was his statement of faith and vision for change."
