The Dubois museum in Accra was the last residence of Dr
Dubois until 27th August 1963. Located in the Cantonments,Accra
the residence of the current President and my hotel, the museum was a few
minutes walk away.
At the center, Dr Dubois complied the Encylopedia
Africa in conjunction with Pan Africanist Kwame Nkrumah, the first president of
Ghana. Dubois is regarded as one of two prominent Black
intellectuals of the century alongside Dr Cornell West. I would love to
elaborate further ,but there is simply not enough space on here.( If you are
interested have a look at Wikipedia, the source of all knowledge. Yes I am
being sarcastic)
The Souls of Black Folk ‘first edition’
is in Dr Dubois’ personal library, including hundreds of books from the civil
rights movements, NAACP manuals, philosophy and of course the American
constitution!
