W.E.B. Du Bois shaped 20th century America to an extent rivaled by few others. The first black to receive a Ph.

Martin Luther King, Jr. called Du Bois "a gifted discoverer of social truths." But until now little academic attention has been paid to his insights on religion or to how religious commitments shaped his views of race, rights and justice.
