“As a scholar and essayist without peer, Du Bois was known for prose that gracefully mixed cold, unsparing analysis with lyrical passages on the noble heritage of the Negro people and the justice of their cause. As a political leader, however, he suffered all the liabilities of an elitist intellectual. Even his supporters described his personality as difficult at best, and his haughtiness was so extreme as to inspire collections of Du Bois stories. Once complimented on the honor of being Harvard’s first Negro Ph.D., Du Bois is said to have icily replied, ‘The honor, I assure you, was Harvard’s.’”
–From Taylor Branch’s “Parting the Waters: America In the King Years, 1954-63” (1988)
