Based on the author's 1903 collection of essays, this multimedia study environment for The Souls of Black Folk included references to both historical events and biographical experiences with archival film footage, "Sorrow Song" recordings for nearly 30 spirituals and more than 150 texts and documents written by or to Dr. Du Bois that have a direct bearing on the collection. The MSE also contained video interviews with Columbia University faculty members Manning Marable and Robert O'Mealley among others.
