- "Legacy of Courage: W.E.B. Du Bois and The Philadelphia Negro" is a 19-minute documentary that tells the story of the research that Du Bois did in Philadelphia's old Seventh Ward in the 1890s for his classic book, The Philadelphia Negro.
This video is part of "The Ward," a research, teaching, and public history project dedicated to sharing the timeless lessons from W.E.B. Du Bois' 1899 book, The Philadelphia Negro. We seek to teach high school students about Du Bois' major contributions to social science and civil rights and engage a broad audience in an honest dialog about the continuing impact of race and racism.

“It is very important to understand the world that you’re in. If you don’t understand the world that you’re in, you will simply work for the person that does.”
Yes!
Absolutely beautiful, the mural with the Miss Veronica James....gave me happy tears.
Beautiful. Tears came to my eyes.
I'm in the midst of reading that book now. It's giving me a great education regarding DuBois' research methods.
Well done. What the world needs most is kindness among all men.
All I can say is WOW! Oh and I just bought the book. ❤️🖤💚👊🏾
I came here to learn more about DuBois, now I'm side tracked on another tab about Condom Kingdom.
Its a waste of time. Don't get sidetracked by consumerism.
Dr. Zuberi of the History Detectives!!
This is beautiful and elegant, expression of This man?
Nice.

Hello to all my mates from SOC 101!
heyyy
Great mini documentary. I wish it was longer. Professor Zuberi and Professor Anderson were very informative. At the end of the doc, they seem to have almost all White artist painting a mural about Black people/history. What's wrong with this picture? From 9:18 to 9:30 in the video they talk about the paucity of Blacks in the construction industry, but in the same video a mural being painted dedicated to the Black people of Philly did not include many Black artists. How ironic is that?
The people that you see making that mural most likely were caught writing on walls and are doing community services.
Who's the rapper at the end of the song?
imagine kiwi illifanti
This is all the more reason why black people should be doggedly driven by education-skill training and industriousness. We really must shift away from entertainment. The we have produced too much of it already.
self knowledge !!!
Not many blks on south street today 2014
We never confronted Crack, the poison that makes you want more.
It's time to stop reading history books and start reading science books. We have a continent to develop and we haven't begun to do it! We all know where we came from. If we dont developed Africa then stop complain about treatment!
Washington wanted to wait for the vote because he saw the education level of the majority of blacks at that time. He wanted black society to grow like all other societies do: industry and labor, then intellectual gains. Stone, Bronze, then writing. Garvey wanted to demand rights but didn't realize respect is earned not given.
Jim Crow didn't allow blacks to grow and had to be fought.
There's much to understand about Dubois. He didn't believe in one class rather of Black people and he utilized his paper The Crisis to destroy Black organizations that didn't follow his blue print. One such person was Marcus Garvey
Wrong.
@pearlsnaredrummer77 Precisely . He also didn't help himself by meeting with the KKK and he made himself a target of the authorities which was why he was deported. Garvey didn't help his chances in society.
5:58 this is why he became "radical" and confronted Booker T Washington approach that he initially followed.
Organizations that are now serving the corporate empire and state department. They deserved destroying. The NAACP now celebrates Ford, McDonald's, Boeing, Walmart etc because they hire a few dark skinned people to serve them in high places. They celebrate dark skinned men serving in the same military that has slaughtered indigenous peoples for hundreds of years. Slaughtered millions of people. If you want to fall into place and hire Timothy Geithner you can be a "black president" also
Went to prison based upon FALSE EVIDENCE!
Definitely not a study of race. If you believe that you are different from other people. then you have already lost mentally. Physically yes, diversity is beautiful, and apparently the universe/God agree with me.
is dr. du Boris another kanye west ?
No he wasn't.
Kanye west should never be mentioned In same sentence as Dr. Du Bois. That's disrespectful
not funny
