Du Bois, the first black man to earn a doctorate from Harvard University.[4] In 2005, Morris and a group of peers persuaded the American Sociological Association to rename their top award after Du Bois.[1][7] In his 2015 book, The Scholar Denied: W. E. B. Du Bois and the Birth of Modern Sociology, Morris argued that Du Bois was the founder of modern American sociology, and that his contributions to the field were suppressed for decades due to institutional racism.[5] Selected publications
