W.E.B. Du Bois articulated the idea of the Talented Tenth in a 1903 essay of the same title. In the essay he argues for the liberal education of talented Black youth. While others were more supportitive of industurial and labor intensive training for all Blacks, Du Bois pointed out that the newly emancipated people needed leaders and teachers with a high degree of liberal knowledge.
