There are social problems before us demanding careful study, pending satisfactory answers questions. We study we investigate, we must try to solve, and the maximum that the world can demand is, not lack of human interest and moral conviction but the heart-quality of fairness, and an earnest desire for truth despite its possible unpleasantness (Du Bois [ 1899th] 1967:3).
The Atlanta Sociological Laboratory, 1895-1924, became the first American school of sociology (Wright 2002). However, sociological accomplishments of this group of scholars are relatively absent from the existing sociological literature. The data collected in this investigation indicate that the Atlanta Sociological Laboratory has become sociologically invisible because of racial prejudice, the perception that the conclusions of the school ungeneralizable that their research methods unsophisticated and of low quality, and ignores the theory analysis.

Specifically, the Laboratory of Sociology at Atlanta was one of the first American research institutions in the regular practice of triangulation method, compared to the benefits and limitations of using insider researchers from abroad, and to promote the use of more a theory to explain social events (Wright 2000, 2002).
It is true that most attempts to understand past events are susceptible to subjective analysis of the researcher in question. Understanding this possibility, the sociology of knowledge theoretical point of view of Karl Mannheim (1968) is employed.
