William Edward Burghardt Du Bois (February 23, 1868 – August 27, 1963) was a Statesian socialist, pan-Africanist, and civil rights activist. He was the first person to scientifically analyze the concept of race in the United States. Du Bois studied African history and believed that colonialism was the main cause of modern wars.[1]
