The Negro Problem is a landmark 1903 anthology featuring essays by seven of the most influential African American thinkers and writers of the early twentieth century-Charles W. Chesnutt, W. E. B. Du Bois, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Timothy Thomas Fortune, H. T. Kealing, Wilford H. Smith, and Booker T. Washington.

This powerful collection presents diverse perspectives on race, education, politics, and social progress in post-Reconstruction America. The contributors explore the challenges facing African Americans in the struggle for equality and self-determination, offering visionary ideas for empowerment, unity, and reform.

With its blend of literary elegance, intellectual rigor, and moral conviction, The Negro Problem stands as a defining work in African American thought. It captures the voices of a generation committed to justice and the uplift of their people-making it an essential text for understanding the foundations of modern civil rights discourse.
