Journal Article
DUBOIS AND \THE CRISIS\ MAGAZINE: IMAGING WOMEN AND FAMILY
2005
Overview
Discusses the magazine The Crisis and its use of illustrations to express its opposition to racial prejudice, focusing on images of children, women and families. The author describes the political ideals of the founding editor W. E. B. DuBois, and examines Harry W. Matrons' illustration of a mixed-race family, reproduced from his painting 'The Drop Sinister' (1915; illus.), and the cover illustration 'Negro Family under the Protection of the NAACP' (1925; illus.) by Albert Alexander Smith. She considers DuBois's belief in the importance of black women in the struggle for equality, with reference to Henry Adams' cartoon 'Woman to the Rescue!' (1916; illus.), and concludes by stating that DuBois used a marriage of text and image to emphasise his most important messages.
