Letter from W. E. B. Du Bois to the Reverend E. Mdolomba

1930

Suggesting "the organization and regular meetings of the natives" as the only probable solution to the "South African situation" -- "only in this way can you accomplish your freedom" -- encouraging him to "speak out frankly and fearlessly" and spread news of the situation to "the newspapers of England, America, and the Continent"; generally encouraging his efforts, and declaring "The time has come for the black man in Africa to assert himself."
