The complicated, brilliant DuBois never bores or tires us. . . . Provenzo's assemblage is timely. In the current climate of fundamental educational reconsideration, this work both reinforces what we already understood, and causes us to reflect anew on the greatest black scholar of the last century...The essays chosen for this work deliver an intimate panorama of DuBois' views on education...of interest to both the casual and serious DuBois enthusiast.
