Augustus Granville Dill
Black sociology developed as a response to mainstream, white sociology’s failures to address the condition of Black people in the Unites States. Central to the practice of Black sociology is that it necessitates sociological work be used, where possible, for the benefit of Black people. The contemporary practice of public sociology has similar aims of bringing sociological knowledges to various publics to address their particular issues. The publ…

Wrestling with the Past and Mapping the Future
Despite Rural Sociology's long history of publishing rigorous research about rurality, one notable area for improvement is attention to race and racial issues. As Tieken and Wright argue, this special issue is an important first step toward expanding the journal's scope and reckoning with its historical failings. This issue introduction summarizes the critical insights the issue's articles offer the field at this pivotal moment of racial awarenes…
The Laboratory in Sociology at Atlanta (1903)
An Earnest Desire for the Truth despite Its Possible Unpleasantness
The authors examine the methodological sophistication of the research conducted by the W.E.B. Du Bois-led Atlanta Sociological Laboratory (ASL), the first American school of sociology, and Albion Small-edited American Journal of Sociology ( AJS). Comparative analysis of the ASL publications and scholarly articles in AJS between 1895 and 1917 is undertaken to identify articulations of the method(s) of research offered in both. The authors conclude…
W. E. B. Du Bois and The Atlanta Sociological Laboratory
William Edward Burghardt DuBois who is often, and erroneously, credited with founding the research program that came to be known as the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory. Du Bois believed the major flaw of the early Atlanta University Studies was Bradford's attempt to replicate the Hampton and Tuskegee models. He believed the Hampton and Tuskegee conferences were merely "meetings of inspiration, directed toward specific efforts at social reform and…
The First American School of Sociology
This book offers an original and rounded examination of the origin and sociological contributions of one of the most significant, yet continuously ignored, programs of social science research ever established in the United States: the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory. Under the leadership of W.E.B. Du Bois, this unit at Atlanta University made extensive contributions to the discipline which, as the author demonstrates, extend beyond 'race studies'…
Color Line
In 1903 William Edward Burghardt Du Bois wrote in his classic text The Souls of Black Folk : “The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color‐line, – the relation of the darker to the lighter races of men in Asia and Africa, in America and the islands of the sea.” This thunderous pronouncement served as Du Bois's clarion call for the nation, grappling with tense and volatile relations between blacks and whites, to engage in objec…

In Memoriam
W. E. B. Du Bois, Howard W. Odum and the Sociological Ghetto
The sociology of the South, as a substantive area research interest, emerged during the 1800s as a means to rationalize and preserve the cultural norms of slavery era whites who would soon experience seismic social shocks including the Civil War and emancipation of enslaved blacks. The person singularly cited as the architect of this area of study is Howard W. Odum. Although Odum is identified as the person most responsible for the development of…

Why, Where, and How to Infuse the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory into the Sociology Curriculum
The Atlanta Sociological Laboratory is the moniker bestowed on scholars engaged in sociological research at Atlanta University between 1895 and 1924. Under the leadership of W. E. B. Du Bois, 1897–1914, this school made substantive yet marginalized contributions to the discipline. Despite these accomplishments, the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory remains unknown to most professional sociologists. This article examines why the accomplishments of t…
Beyond W. E. B. Du Bois
Between 1895 and 1924 Atlanta University sponsored yearly investigations into the social, economic, and physical condition of Blacks and hosted conferences where the findings were presented. With the appointment of William Edward Burghardt Du Bois as director of the investigations in 1897 the unit soon became the first American school of sociology. Unfortunately, the contributions of members of the school beyond Du Bois remain buried within the h…
The Tradition of Sociology at Fisk University
Deferred Legacy! The Continued Marginalization of the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory
Despite these contributions that predate the Chicago School, the W. E. B. Du Bois led laboratory remains in the margins of American sociological discourse. This paper examines the contributions of the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory, offers explanations for the school's more than 100‐year marginalization and examines its legacy in the discipline
W. E. B. Du Bois and the Atlanta University studies on the Negro, Revisited
Jim Crow Sociology
Using the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory as a reference, this inquiry offers a definition of and principles for Black Sociology. The authors conclude that Black Sociology emerged at Atlanta University in 1895 not as a conscious or purposeful antithesis to mainstream sociology, but as a means by which Black and White scholars could help eliminate Blacks from social oppression through objective scientific investigations into the social, economic, …
W.E.B. Du Bois's Talented Tenth
The Talented Tenth is the moniker that W.E.B. Du Bois bestowed on the cadre of college-educated African Americans whom he charged with providing leadership for the African American community during the post-Reconstruction era. According to Du Bois's original theoretical formulation, the Talented Tenth were to sacrifice their personal interests and endeavors to provide leadership for the African American community. Following in Du Bois's footsteps…
Why Black People Tend to Shout! An Earnest Attempt to Explain the Sociological Negation of the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory Despite Its Possible Unpleasantness
The Atlanta Sociological Laboratory, 1895-1924, comprised the first American school of sociology (Wright 2002). Despite this fact, the sociological accomplishments of this group of scholars are relatively absent from the existing sociological literature. Data collected for this investigation indicate that the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory has been rendered sociologically invisible because of race prejudice, the perception that the school's find…
Using the Master's Tools
The Chicago School of Sociology (1915-1930) is often referred to as the first American school of sociology. This investigation challenges that claim and proposes that, possibly, the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory (1896-1924) deserves the designation of being America's first school of sociology. Martin Bulmer's (1985) model of a school is applied to the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory and the findings indicate, per Bulmer's prerequisites, that th…
