Abstract

The discipline's gatekeepers of the World War I era systematically—and largely correctly—associated applied sociology with the work of African American and female professionals (such as W.E.B. DuBois and Jane Addams). In the largely sexist and racist ethos that characterized the era, they were thus able to relegate application to the second class status that it maintains to this day.
