Forging a Laboring Race foregrounds the working black body as both a category of analysis and lived experience. "How does it feel to be a problem?". asked W.E.B. DuBois in The Souls of Black Folk. For many thinkers across the color line, the "Negro problem" was inextricably linked to the concurrent "labor problem," occasioning debates regarding blacks' role in the nation's industrial past, present and future.
