ReplyDelete2. W.E.B du Bois was a famous sociologist who studied the conditions of blacks. He also was the most important black leader in the during the the first half of 20th century & shared in the creation of NAACP.
3. How these to men are relate is because they both strive for the education of African Americans. The different of these two men are Booker t. didnt want to educate the blacks to have their own opinion but he wanted 2 train them to become workers for the whites, while Du Bois waned to educate to bring out the intelligence of blacks so they can have their own state of mind for becoming leaders, writers etc.
1.Booker T. Washington was one of the most influential and controversial African Americans in history. Washington was self-motivated and committed to his own education from a young age. The riotous time in America's history during which he lived afforded him new freedoms that came from Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 and the ultimate success of the North in the Civil War. He took the first opportunity to attend a formal school, Hampton Institute, which led to professorship and the founding of one of the most prominent African American educational institutions of the nineteenth century, Tuskegee Institute in Alabama.
ReplyDelete2.Scholar and political activist W.E.B. Du Bois helped found the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
3. The difference between these two men were that Washington urged industrial education for African-Americans. He also founded the Tuskegee Institute. The Tuskegee Institute provided industrial training to African-Americans. Washington believed that African-Americans would gain respect from the white community if they had trade skills. He also believed that trade skills were key to economic security. He gained much respect from white southerners with this presumption. Du Bois on the other hand believed that academic education was more imperative that trade education. He thought Washington's emphasis on industrial education actually kept African-Americans trapped in lower social and economic classes by suggesting they were best suited to service occupations.
