W.E.B. Du Bois Medal


Well, they’re fitting. Wasn’t W.E.B. Du Bois on record as favoring the Genocide in the Ukraine? He was certainly a communist sympathizer.

Du Bois was a Communist sympathizer and admirer of Stalin who officially joined the party in 1961. He supported the general Communist Party line for years. Whether he ever actually said that he thought people in Ukraine should be starved is another matter.
