Jason Stanley _ How Propaganda Works
American philosopher W.E.B. Du Bois repeatedly emphasizes that the nation owes its Black citizens three things: "the free right to vote, {the right} to enjoy civic rights, and {the right} to be educated."11 Du Bois demands that "{n}egroes must insist continually, in season and out of season, that voting is necessary to modern manhood … and that black boys need education as well as white boys." Du Bois focuses on these three rights-voting rights, civic equality, and education-because he thinks of political participation as special among the liberties; education is important because only the educated citizen can participate well in civic life.
