Item description from seller

April 1922 issue of The Crisis, the official publication of the NAACP. 43 pp, illustrated in black and white. Staple bound in publisher's printed wraps with front cover illustrated by Dubois' daughter, Yolande DuBois. Very Good. Wraps with wear to extremities, spine worn and with a short glue repair, slight soiling and toning, small spots of damp staining affecting lower corner of front wrap and right edge of first leaf only. W.E.B. DuBois founded The Crisis in 1910. The stated purpose of the landmark publication was to "set forth those facts and arguments which show the danger of race prejudice, particularly as manifested today toward colored people." This issue includes notable contributions including an essay by activist Robert W. Bagnall and a poem by Jean Toomer. Madam C. J. Walker, America's first female self-made millionaire, promotes her beauty products geared toward African American women at the rear cover.
