SCHOLAR DENIED : w. e. b. du bois and the birth of modern sociology
Calling into question the prevailing narrative of how sociology developed, the author uncovers the seminal theoretical work of Du Bois in developing a "scientific" sociology through a variety of methodologies and examines how the leading scholars of the day disparaged and ignored Du Bois' work.
