In Memory Of; The Souls of Black Folk: 1 of 5 SeriesBelow is a clip of a moving insight by Mr. Owen Brown on the specifics of the points raised in the essay. Here the reader will understand the determination to how important the topic Du Bois discusses is pertinent for future thought: "...While those who were educated by our Black institutions have broken their chains, they have chosen to turn a blind eye to the social discord of the Black community. One hundred years later, we still find the majority of our Black citizens withering on the vine, caught up in the bondage of second-class citizenship." - W. Owen Brown My lasting thoughts on the essay that allowed a great deal discussion: I can conclude that quality education from grade school and high school level is important only if warranted by the black male who wishes to grow. When he does make that decision to progress farther to the college level - it is of utmost importance to have college training providing the solutions of problems that the world delivers for black men. Moreover, it must develop men, as Du Bois passionate essay tries to convey to the masses. The turning of the century brought not only freedom but also a new beginning. Is it not to teach the sons of becoming those of the ancient masters? Once the sons know of the many possibilities one can become a husband, a father, and finally: A leader.- Nichel Anderson Further review Of The Training Of Black Men can be access at the following site: http://www.bartleby.com/114/6.html and the Suite101 review article at http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/1159... ~~~ Of The Sons Of Master And Man
