I'm a big fan of this blog, but you are absolutely right about this blog. Dubois was committed activist scholar. Organizations like the NAACP and UNIA and CORE actually moblized people to actually do something, to put their money and their bodies where their mouths are. I'm a blogger myself, but I don't mistake the kind of work I do on my blog with the kind of work I do in my classroom and my grassroots organizing.
