Sides are PIECES OF THE PUZZLE, we need the WHOLE...They ALL were right! we just haven't found out how to UNITE our differences of approach! UNITY should be OUR religion to reach God or we'll continue to fall, scattered, under the devil & arguing...
TheAfricanKillerBs - It would be more accurate to say that they were all PARTIALLY right. That would include Booker T., WEB Du Bois, Garvey, etc. None of them were right in the totality of what they taught and the example that they set. We cannot continue with the parts of their thinking that are not right for us now, and going forward.
Up From Slavery by Washington should be required reading for African Americans. It is a beautiful story of perseverance and success. Truly he was an American Treasure.
Am a Zambian, I read about Booker.T. Washington and George Washington Carver from the Martin Luther king Memorial Library in Lusaka Zambia about 20 years ago. Their stories have left a lasting impression on me as an African. Their is alot Africa and the Diaspora can learn from these two selfless African- American men. Their stories form the content of Africa and African-American History which should be taught in African and African-Americans school systems.
Great American hero. Booker t Washington was a doer and extremely practical. His plan today would still work today for black people. Very intelligent man.
Not really. The black community has many thinkers, artists, creators and potential entrepenuers. His method fit people wanting to work for others. But black people wanting to work for others is probably no more than 70 percent of the black American population.
olzt100 it’s not about what you WANT to do. Most of the people he taught hated the idea of doing physical labor after slavery. But his philosophy is that a nation can only prosper once it acknowledges that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem. The race relations in the towns near his school were amazing because the whites had to respect the blacks, who had learned how to do something that was desired and necessary in a way that was excellent. They were needed, and so they HAD to be respected. And many of his students went on to achieve great success.
@@LoryLilyBomber It's true. And Dr. Vernon Johns, the itinerant pastor who served at the same church in Alabama where Dr. Luther King served after him, also had similar ideas. He believed that black people had to achieve an economic status that would give them that independence they needed. That way, they would not have to pay unfair prices and would have the liberty to sell and buy among themselves, because every Sunday after the Service they had a small market that allowed them a fair economic activity with benefits for them all...and no overprices. Also, Dr. Johns, along with his family, practiced bus protests whenever he observed there was something wrong. And he was very strict with that, because he had that kind of character. That is why he could not stay too long at any church. They did not want him to cause them all that trouble. He was a very interesting figure. In my own country, Puerto Rico, I have witnessed that such is the right practice. The government itself allowed heartless people to convince farmers to leave their farms and even migrate to some states, mainly New York and Hawaii. With its complicity, many, many people left our Island, but without preparation. They were sent in overcrowded ships, without the right attention for food, coat or safety, not to mention that the "system" never allowed them to be prepared concerning language. Some of them died from coldness, because they knew nothing about really cold weather: this is a tropical island. Of course, they never reached their promised destiny. Others became so crazy when they understood that it all had been a lie, that started running through the gigantic crops, without stopping, and never was known anything more about them. Some others commited suicide. Some books say that in Hawaii there was a certain cabin in which several hanged themselves. All of these cases are documented. And all of this tragedy, in order to sell the land to the emporium of monocultivation and to make the Island become an industrial enterprise, just for "progress", as if it were a shame to cultivate the Land, and now the result is that we depend from outside products and food in order to eat, which means that we pay overprices, among other things. I hope that this information can be useful. Best wishes to you all!
Booker T pushing us away from distraction of politics and to be concerned with our economics, because political change always takes eons. Dubois want us to disregard our economic standing and fight for rights. Booker T’s message pushes on onward regardless, beautiful.
there are too many distortions in this presentations, 1. Dr. Washington did not take over a newly built Tuskegee University, Dr. Washington was summoned to Tuskegee and built Tuskegee Industrial and Normal Institute out of nothing.
Did you know that when Booker T. Washington was 16 year-old he had to walk 500 miles to go to the collage in Hampton. He also had to sleep under a wooden sidewalk when he is going to Hamton.
When I was in Black History class in college it was a very cool interesting experience...we studied a bit about the economical development of African Americans. Holy ghost. Terrill T.C a.k.a Relic
Summer, 2016. I am riding in the backseat of one of my dearest friend's automobile. Inside the back pocket of the front passenger's seat was a ragged book: Up from Slavery by Booker T. Washington. Since I was more fond of books than he, he let me use it; eventually keeping it. February, 2019: Black History Month. To commemorate our integration with so many people, especially those of black or African-American decent, who would become more than just strangers, I would take the time by celebrating this month by reading a chapter each night from this book. It was well-worth the read, and can still be relevant through the 21st Century.
William Henry Dewberry III he was not assassinated. he was liked by whites because he believed in keeping blacks in their proper "place" beneath the white man
We all (HOPEFULLY) reach an age where we stop bellyaching about the status quo and learn that it's far more effective to quietly undermine it. What a typically American tragedy that others are too impulsive (OR TOO VAIN AND ENVIOUS) to agree with what he was doing. And I don't doubt that some of his haters were deliberate misleaders salaried by the elite opposition who felt only too keenly how devastatingly effective Washington's strategy was! After all, unlike us peasants, they ALWAYS think long-term. And despite what the media tells us, this is a nation of laws not of "hearts and minds" which are mercurial by nature. You can't sustain a culture on shallow and exhaustive rhetoric, precisely because of the patently obvious pendulum effect whereby like a lava lamp the subconscious is constantly saying "Nah!".
He only knew himself as Booker until he went to school. When the teacher asked his name, he made up his last name Washington. Later his mom told him his last name was Taliaferro. So he made his full name Booker Taliaferro Washington.
Booker T. Washington's slavery was of the apprentenship variety. He is probably a relative of President George Washington, whom kept a Native hand around at all time and its now known that he had multiple biracial families with slaves and the Native Aborigine. sometimes families placed their children into this agreement because when the endentured servitude ends, they were well educated and well connected.

Amen and well said.

For all Americans
Currently about to finish this book, absolutely should be a must read in schools.
I think it should be required reading for every American.
My greater education is better

He was actually 14 when he did that

What a legend even was a 5x Wcw champion as well
Booker T. Washington was awesome
Booker T Washington never used the term "African-American" as this video keeps doing.
Booker T. Washington .. I salute you...
I agree with booker t Washington
A lot of information in that short clip. Thanks!

Super lesson
Very Interesting
What a brilliant man
How's that WEB Dubois experiment going for ya.
Booker T Washington was very special and a courageous leader.
It's sad because I had heard so much about Booker T. Washington stayed in the projects but had no clue who he was.
A GIANT AMONGST MEN!👍👍
I prefer Booker over DuBois.
Fav but rarely talked about compared to rest
Should have stuck with T washington's Ideas
Facts!
It would be a great way how he studied
who wrote this biography
great book
I had heard of him when I was growing in my younger days.
I can’t believe there are people that put a thumbs down on this video 😡
I find it interesting that this man died a mysterious death and no one is sharp enough to realize the fact that he was assassinated.
Jamie Scott How do you know, that he was assassinated?
He died because of a heart attack
William Henry Dewberry III he was not assassinated. he was liked by whites because he believed in keeping blacks in their proper "place" beneath the white man
@@allenwood3805 No he did not.
Who created biography.com? Plz need help for homework

Good facts

I wonder how that report turned out?
Elijah Idemudia same here
Hamton Institute
But it has been 2 months it is too late now
I go to btw high school in houston tx
The thumbnail looks like Teddy Roosevelt.
Lol yea
the music is annoying
I read a book when he was growing up and stuff
I know him in history already!!
😆
Shannon Burke this is not a video to be making jokes this is not a funny thing
He was a handsome man.Was that his real name ,Booker t Washington?
He only knew himself as Booker until he went to school. When the teacher asked his name, he made up his last name Washington. Later his mom told him his last name was Taliaferro. So he made his full name Booker Taliaferro Washington.
Booker T Washington, Marcus Garvey and Elijah Muhammad the best leaders black America ever had
Marcus Garvey was influenced by Booker T Washington
No one speaks on Trotters involvement
He looks like Teddy Roosevelt in the thumbnail.
Big gang okay luv
Super rich lady dressed all fine doingthe commentary, she don't understand what being poor was and is. Bless her heart.
April 5 1856-November 14 1915
Age 59
Washington had it right....DuBois and all those hybrid high yellas had it wrong
William Monroe Trotter was Black.
Also, those who were in the fight
wow
Booker T. Washington is my grandma’s uncle I’m not lying
Did he start off as a wrestler or am I thinking of someone else?
Wow
Booker T. Washington's slavery was of the apprentenship variety. He is probably a relative of President George Washington, whom kept a Native hand around at all time and its now known that he had multiple biracial families with slaves and the Native Aborigine. sometimes families placed their children into this agreement because when the endentured servitude ends, they were well educated and well connected.
His last name wasn't really Washington though so that's probably a reach.
there is also mulattos ( African/Indian mixes), several racial mixes whose names can lead to specific geneology.
