Reflections on life, age, and race in a fractured world
A dated, opinionated column blends aphorisms, anecdotes, and social commentary. It touches on aging, friendship beyond mortality, humor about undertakers, and a nostalgic critique of Jim Crow, Delinquency, and racial attitudes, interspersed with personal reminiscences of Du Bois and local society.
