Frazier, E Franklin

    0.01 sec.

Frazier, E(dward) Franklin

(born Sept. 24, 1894, Baltimore, Md., U.S.—died May 17, 1962, Washington, D.C.) U.S. sociologist. Frazier studied at Howard and Clark universities. At Morehouse College he organized the Atlanta University School of Social Work (for African Americans). His controversial article “The Pathology of Race Prejudice” (1927) forced him to leave Morehouse; he obtained a Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1931, then taught at Fisk University (1929–34) and Howard University (1934–59). His The Negro Family in the United States (1939) is among the first sociological works on blacks researched and written by an African American.
