Autorenporträt
W. E. B. Du Bois was a groundbreaking African-American scholar, historian, and civil rights activist. Born in 1868 in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, he was the first African American to earn a doctorate from Harvard. In 1909, he co-founded the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), which became a leading force in the fight for racial equality.Du Bois introduced enduring concepts like "double consciousness" in The Souls of Black Folk, shaping discussions on race and identity. He championed Pan-Africanism, organizing global efforts for African unity and independence. His writings and activism deeply influenced the civil rights movement.Later in life, Du Bois became disillusioned with the United States' treatment of African Americans. In 1961, he moved to Ghana at the invitation of President Kwame Nkrumah, becoming a Ghanaian citizen. He spent his final years contributing to the Encyclopedia Africana, passing away in 1963, leaving a legacy of scholarship and activism.
