DuBois because history has to reflect truth and Dr. DuBois was a tireless explorer and a gifted discoverer of social truths. His singular greatness lay in his quest for truth about his own people.

The degree to which he succeeded disclosed the great dimensions of the man.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
