Crisis: A Record of the Darker Races, Vol. I, No. 2

by W. E. B. Du Bois

This issue of *The Crisis*, the official publication of the NAACP, focuses on the pressing issues of racial prejudice and inequality in early 20th-century America. Edited by W.E.B. Du Bois, a prominent civil rights advocate, the magazine features articles exploring the impact of Jim Crow laws, the rise of socialism, and the importance of education for African Americans. Du Bois' editorial addresses the urgency of combating racial prejudice and underscores the importance of the magazine's role in raising awareness and advocating for social change. The issue also includes a special article by Franz Boas, a renowned anthropologist, on the nature of the "real race problem," as well as a piece by Mrs. John E. Milholland, highlighting women's voices and experiences in the movement.
