The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- The collection spans Du Bois' entire intellectual development, starting with his teenage advocacy for literacy in his hometown and moving through his academic work and more combative public writings.
- Many of these pieces haven't been previously examined as part of Du Bois' educational thinking, so this book reframes familiar writings in a new context.
- The book positions Du Bois as a central figure in educational thought rather than a peripheral one, which challenges how his legacy has typically been understood.
As of Aug 31, the Education and Empowerment is a good price at $13.98 — versus a $13.50 typical price and a $9.60 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
