Atlanta: Atlanta University Press 1903. Octavo original printed gray self-wrappers respined; pp. 212. $2800.First edition of a rare association copy of Du Bois' groundbreaking work on the Black Church with owner signature of Adelaide M. Cromwell influential scholar and granddaughter of renowned 19th-century Black historian John Wesley Cromwell a peer of Du Bois this 1903 work published the same year as his famed ""Talented Tenth"" manifesto key in affirming Du Bois' role in moving ""the Atlantic University Studies to the frontier of social science research virtually single-handedly.""The year Du Bois arrived in Atlanta in 1897 to begin his tenure at Atlanta University he became director of the annual series of conferences and primary editor of the accompanying publications. Particularly ""in both Negro Church 1903 and Negro Family 1908É Du Bois would push the Atlantic University Studies to the frontier of American social science research virtually single-handedly"" Levering Lewis W.E.B. Du Bois 160. There and in his own early writings ""Du Bois created sociological and historical works of lasting significanceÉ that set wholly new standards for the sociological study of Black Americans"" New York Times. In Atlanta already ""one of the 20th century's intellectual heavyweights"" he stood in ""the vanguard of social science scholarship in America"" but remained ignored by the academy as the critically underfunded Atlanta University was routinely bypassed by white philanthropists Levering Lewis 713 162.It was in Atlanta that Du Bois created ""the first American school of sociology"" Wright First American School of Sociology 80. Yet in 1910 when he realized ""his presence on the faculty of Atlanta University negatively affected the school's philanthropic outreach effortsÉ he chose to resign from the faculty."" Du Bois increasingly ""saw that 'the cure wasn't simply telling people the truth it was inducing them to act on the truth.' It was not enough to determine truth scientifically; it had to be implemented politically."" This became a cornerstone of his often tumultuous always consequential life and career. Nearly five decades after leaving Atlanta the news of his death across the world in Ghana caused the 250000 Americans gathered at the 1963 March on Washington to grow suddenly silentÑa ""moment almost cinematic in its poignancy""Ñas Roy Wilkins declared: ""his was the voice calling you to gather today in this cause"" Levering Lewis 162 2.
