“…119 Jacob's 116 Michael Jacobs, "Margaret Thatcher and the Inner Cities, " Economic and Political Weekly 23, no. 38 (1988): 1944 makes no explicit mention of race in his observations. Nonetheless, it is implied that the process of what he calls "deliberate gentrification" has the desired effect of what Thatcher called "winning the inner cities back to our cause" by defeating claims of an intergenerational right to residence for migrant communities predominantly of color.…”

“…He was a founder and general secretary of the Niagara Movement, an early advocate of women's rights, a founder of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), and, from 1910 to 1934, the internationally known editor of the NAACP's The Crisis. Du Bois's (1944) autobiographical essay, "My Evolving Program for Negro Freedom," was written when he was in his mid-70s. It provides some information about his direct connections to sociology (e.g., his academic work at Harvard, studies with Schmoller and Weber, offer to teach sociology at Wilberforce, development of the Atlanta Conferences and research in Philadelphia).…”

“…It provides some information about his direct connections to sociology (e.g., his academic work at Harvard, studies with Schmoller and Weber, offer to teach sociology at Wilberforce, development of the Atlanta Conferences and research in Philadelphia). Du Bois (1944) recalled that, when he was in his 40s, he "followed the path of sociology as an inseparable part of social reform, and social uplift as a method of scientific investigation." He said he was changing his attitude about the social sciences.…”

This article discusses the lives and impact of leading activists whose work is highlighted in the histories of clinical sociology in the United States and South Africa. The four scholar-practitioners from the United States discussed here are Jane Addams, W.E.B. Du Bois, Charles Gomillion and James Laue. The South African clinical sociologists whose lives are profiled are Harold Wolpe and H.W. van der Merwe. Based on the career experiences of these six individuals, concluding comments are made about five topics in relation to activism: employment, sufficient time for effective activism, handling criticism, reasons for becoming strong activists, and factors that may discourage activism.

Michael Burawoy’s 2021 essay, ‘Decolonizing Sociology: The Significance of W.E.B. Du Bois’, forges dialogues between the scholar denied and established theorists with the aim of reconstructing the sociological canon. My commentary situates the author’s essay and his own Du Boisian turn in a long career dedicated to reflexive science and recomposing theory. I reflect on the seemingly innocuous notion of a dialogue itself: its implications for sociological theory and practice, and how it supports decolonial efforts. Thinking with Toni Morrison, Hazel Carby, Lisa Lowe, and others, I offer a sketch of a decolonial methodology—what I call a Du Boisian shadowplay—that brings into view the intimate dimensions of imperialism. Ultimately, such a feminist methodology reconstructs dialogues that reflect on researcher standpoints and nested imperial histories; and in the face of today’s social crises, nurtures dialogues that are animated by an ethic of love.
