Abstract

This article is a personal narrative of the making of a scholar-activist, as exemplified in the writings of both Max Weber and W.E. B. Du Bois. The author describes the issues and situations which required the dual role of the scholar-activist and the activist-scholar. The singular role of each may accomplish many objectives. However, both roles in tandem, depending on the situations, may be even more useful in solving and resolving certain issues.

Keywords: Scholar-Activist; Activist-Scholar; Black Students Union; Anti-War Alliance; Doubleness
