Description
This extraordinary study on the African American family by W.E.B. Du Bois was originally published as number 13 of the now famous “Atlanta University Publications.” The salient contribution he made with this seminal book to the social sciences and to contemporary America is that it offers great insight into some of the problems of stability, economic and social conditions that many African American families are still struggling with today. The groundbreaking theoretical contributions and intellectual prowess of this detailed study makes it possible to connect present conditions of blacks in America with what can best be described as a turbulent past.
