E. Franklin Frazier  

Definition(s)

  • E. (Edward) Franklin Frazier was a prolific Black sociologist whose pioneering research contributed to the foundation of Black sociological thought and challenged conventional wisdom by raising existential questions regarding the complexity of race relations in American society. Frequently characterized as an “improper Negro,” a nonconformist, a protestor, and a gadfly, Frazier represents a generation of Black sociologists who embodied the intellectual, political, and social Zeitgeist that characterized the 1920s.
