About this listen

In The Souls of Black Folk, W. E. B. Du Bois presents a powerful, introspective look at the African American experience in the post-Reconstruction South.

Through a series of essays, Du Bois explores the psychological impact of racism, the struggle for equality, and the concept of "double consciousness"—the tension of being Black in a society that marginalises you. A seminal work in American history and literature, this book challenges the notion of a "post-racial" world, urging readers to confront the deep-rooted injustices that continue to shape the lives of Black Americans.
