Title

  • Segregated Scholars: Black Social Scientists and the Creation of Black Labor Studies, 1890-1950

Summary

  • Who were the major black labor historians and how did they come to produce groundbreaking work in economic and labor studies? In a talk at the Library of Congress, Francille Rusan Wilson explored the lives and work of black scholars whose imprint on labor history and social science has earned them a lasting place in African-American intellectual heritage. A nationally known historian, Wilson discussed and signed her book, "The Segregated Scholars: Black Social Scientists and the Creation of Black Labor Studies, 1890-1950," in a program sponsored by the Library's Humanities and Social Sciences Division. Wilson's book, published in 2006 by the University of Virginia Press, examines three generations of scholar activists.
