This project is an ongoing effort to make available a selection of writings by W.E.B. Du Bois that appeared in The Crisis, the official journal of the NAACP. Du Bois founded the magazine in 1910 and regularly contributed editorials and occasional articles until 1934 when he left the NAACP. The project's website is available at dareyoufight.org.
As Dare You Fight grows, it should prove to be an indispensable resource for researchers and instructors interested in Du Bois, Black literature, Black politics, and the early history of this remarkable magazine. -- Freeden Blume Oeur, Associate Professor of Sociology and Education, Tufts University
