W.E.B. Du Bois' Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil is a seminal work in African American literature that deftly engages with and illuminates the complexities of racial identity formation and racism in early twentieth-century America. The volume captures the experiences of African Americans as they interact with and confront oppressive systems of structural inequality, making evident the often obscured yet ever-present intersectional dynamics of race, gender, and class in society.
