Happy Birthday to W.E.B. Du Bois, born in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, #OnThisDay in 1868. Du Bois was the first Black American to earn a Ph. D. from Harvard University (in 1895). He was a prolific writer, publishing The Souls of Black Folk, Black Reconstruction in America, and Dusk of Dawn. One of the founders of the NAACP, Du Bois launched & edited its journal, The Crisis.
