Darkwater: The Twentieth Century Completion of Uncle Tom's Cabin is a book written by W. E. Burghardt Du Bois in 1920. It is a collection of essays, poems, and short stories that explore the experiences of African Americans in the United States during the early 20th century. The book is named after the ""dark waters"" of racial oppression that African Americans were forced to navigate during this time.Du Bois' writing in Darkwater is deeply personal and emotional, drawing on his own experiences as well as the experiences of others in the African American community. The book covers a wide range of topics, including race relations, politics, religion, and art. It also includes a fictionalized account of the life of John Brown, a white abolitionist who was executed for his role in the raid on Harpers Ferry.One of the central themes of Darkwater is the idea that African Americans are still struggling to achieve true equality and justice in the United States, despite the abolition of slavery and the passage of civil rights laws. Du Bois argues that racism is deeply ingrained in American society and that it will take a concerted effort to overcome it.Overall, Darkwater is a powerful and thought-provoking book that offers a unique perspective on the African American experience in the early 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of race relations in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
