61. Actually, those writings of DuBois

were first published in magazines, mainly the NAACP publication "The Crisis" and in other African American newspapers and news sources that the overwhelming number of white people did not read (with the exception of a few socialists).

One of the few exception to that was Dr. Dubois criticism of Booker T. which was first published in the Atlantic (his former college professor, William James, may have lent Dr. DuBois a hand there) and eventually collected in The Souls of Black Folk.

I don't think that many or even most white people even read African American news, analysis, and what not on the web because if they did, they wouldn't talk about African Americans and what and hw we think the way they do.

For West to carry those specific criticisms of President Obama in the language that he used all over CNN and even Fox News does not sit right with black folks, and you know THAT.
