WEB Du Bois was also a contrarian, he always marched to his own drum, which was why he was such a successful activist. From an early age he felt compelled to fight for the civil rights of his fellow blacks, he always had a sense that he was one of the black elite who would work tirelessly for civil rights, and this sense of destiny made him a contrarian, an idealist always building a better future. Since he often was ahead of everyone, he was often out-of-step with everyone, and at the end of his life he developed an overly romantic vision of communism.
