The CONTROVERSIAL History of Booker T. Washington -  

YES!

Imagine how great the modern black community would be if we followed Mr Washington's way of building.

Booker T. Washington saw no point in African Americans agitating for social and political equality as Jim Crow racial segregation was taking firm hold in the U.S. in the 1890s. Thus he looked the other way while the white racist power structure in the South oppressed, brutalized, and murdered African Americans therein.

Self sufficiency is fighting for self. Begging to be included and chasing degrees only work but so much.

Right? All “progressives” I hear call him coon and a trader to his race… unreal, God rest his soul

Very similar work on your analogy though

@Ivan Drago How? the similarity is the analogy? What is your point? you are not making any sense. The commonality is that both disagreed on how to handle the racial problem in America. You need to work your analogy.

In some ways yes, in some ways, no. Malcolm X and King, both wanted FREEDOM, they just had different ways of getting it. Booker, wanted us to stay in the kitchen, learn a trade, or stay in the fields. WEB, wanted Blacks in the professions.

@@dennismagee9555 lol if thats the only commonality you can see thats a false equivocation but ill give you a pass this is alr

@@Weduboey HOW IS IT THEY BOTH HAVE DIFFERENT VIEWS ON CIVIL RIGHTS!!!! THEY ARE BOTH LEADERS AND BOTH SAW HOW THE ISSUE OF RACISM DIFFERENT!!! THAT IS THE COMMONALITY ON BOOKER AND DUBOIS AND MARTIN AND MALCOLM I GUESS YOU CAN'T SEE IT LOGICALLY SO I GIVE YOU A PASS!!!!

thank you fam for the support!

thank you fam, im trying

thank you for listening!

@claydobbins9342 OK, "du bwah," by any other name, is still an idiot. Also note that "du bwah," is a Haitian immigrant who didn't even try to help his fellow Haitians; and look where they are now. Why didn't "du bwah," take his ideas to Haiti? Was he paid by whites to derail the progress we were making under Booker T? (If that wasn't his intention, that was the result. And Malcolm X's "more radical" stance only succeeded in getting large swaths of Black American communities burned to the ground. That might not have been Malcolm's intent; but his "radical," rhetoric caused that result. So, the next time you uplift a "radical," in America, ask yourself, "Is he/she trying to keep us safe in the face of change? Or will his/her rhetoric get us all killed or cause the destruction of our communities? I'm just saying this, because I don't reason in "sound bites.," Everything I say is backed by both history and the outcomes.

​@@MYWonderfulRBWorld01Hmmm, bars, I didn't even think about that part with Malcolm X. You right an exact. But Dubois wasn't a Haitian immigrant.

Hey family, my tree shows he married his middle wife ,Jackson I'm related to.

Mother of God💀

Cmon, Booker T was a sellout Sambo no matter how you try to twist.

That was in the South. Booker was hated on the east coast. William Monroe Trotter, took the microphone from him during one of his speeches, that was about the glory of the South. Additionally, when Booker died, MANY of the Blacks that supported him, had turned against him and that stay in the white man's kitchen philosphy. Do some reading. Deep reading.

What. Washington is unpopular

​@@drapetomania2156 What?? What are you even Saying??
