| dc.description.abstract | Original wrappers, 24pp. Through the Conference proceedings detailed in this booklet took place shortly before W.E.B DuBois became Professor of History and Economic at Atlanta University, it was his initiative in launching a groundbreaking series of social science papers, the first scholarly sociological studies of African-Americans, that led to the belated publication of this study seven years after it was written. Possibly the first analysis of the dreadful conditions - including poverty and infant mortality -- which faced Blacks who moved to the cities from the countryside at the end of the 19th century, a harbinger of the Black ghettoes of the future, which even at this starting point, were "hoy-beds of crime, misery and death among the colored people." | en_US |
