SA Filmfest: Bringing W.E.B. Du Bois Home (part 2)

In 2005 two new schools were built in the town of Great Barrington Massachusetts. Some people in the community thought it would be appropriate to name it for W.E.B. Du Bois, a successful scholar, writer, and civil rights activist, who was also born and attended high school in Great Barrington. This documentary explores the naming of the school, as well as the variety of feelings that exist about Dr. Du Bios in Great Barrington today.

I would love to see a university named after him. Dubois University.
