"The Negro" by W. E. B. Du Bois is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work examines the history, culture, and contributions of African peoples, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of one-sixth of the human race often overlooked by history. The book is structured in thematic chapters focusing on different aspects of African heritage, from its origins to the impact of colonization and the slave trade. At the start of "The Negro," the author presents critical insights into the misconceptions surrounding African history and emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of African cultures. Du Bois introduces the complexities of Africa as a continent rich in diversity and history, challenging prevailing racial prejudices. He discusses the varied factors contributing to the formation of African societies, touching on aspects such as geography, ancient civilizations, and the migrations that shaped the continent's population.
