Sociologists during the early establishment of the discipline in the U.S., their foundational contributions to critical race theory and black feminist thought were well-known at the time. But their contributions were actively marginalized, and it hasn\u2019t been until recently that scholars have begun to establish their central importance to our understanding of the relationship of African Americans with the history and legacy of slavery and with a white-dominated society persistently in denial of structural racism and the daily injuries of interpersonal racism. <\/p>\n<p>Anna Julia Cooper\u2019s <cite>A Voice From the South<\/cite> is one of the earliest expressions of black feminism. And W. E. B. Du Bois\u2019 life-long examination of race in the U.S., as well as his work to establish the Sociology Department at Atlanta University, are now recognized as core to classical sociology and social thought. <\/p>\n<p>This talk will present central intellectual contributions of both scholars and, relying on contemporary scholarly work on the history of sociology, will interrogate the process whereby marginalized scholars are recognized as important in their own time, are written out of our disciplinary origin stories early on, and must be rediscovered and reestablished as intellectual giants in their own right.<\/p>\n<p>For further reading on Anna Julia Cooper and W.
