Albert Einstein taught a physics class in 1946 at a HBCU Pennsylvania’s Lincoln University (Langston Hughes & Thurgood Marshall’s alma mater). He said, ‘The separation of the races is not a disease of colored people. It’s a disease of white people.

Dubois and maintaining a 20-year friendship with Paul Robeson.
