Honestly both approaches simultaneously is needed. To be self sustaining and respectful of others but also politically inclined to defend values and unite for strength
Tuskegee native with a degree from Atlanta University. After learning about both men in great detail all my educational career, the truth is Black people are not a monolith and our views are as varied as our shades of color.
Thank you for making these videos. It's incredibly hard to find thorough and accurate lectures on a lot of these topics. I appreciate all the hard work you put into creating these videos.
@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.
@@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!!!!
I"m a HUGE fan of Booker T Washington. I really enjoyed this video because it was very fair and presented him in an objective light. It's easy to criticize him for being too conservative in race relations BUT let's not forget he was also creating a black university in the deep South, right after slavery. Great job.
Dubois's philosophy was geared more for the north and Washington's for the south and somewhere in between, parts of each other's ideas may have be able work together. In school I was chosen to debate Washington against another classmate representing Dubois, and one quote I read from Washington that showed his cleverness realizing that by being in a different environment being in the south as opposed to Dubois, who was in the more tolerant north was "When your head is in the lion's mouth, you don't pull his whiskers, you pat him on the head".
Booker T Washington was more of a conservative. He didn’t care to worry and fight the oppressors. He looked to build and contribute the community. He knew how important it was for us to educate and begin self sufficiency for ourselves.
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.
I believe that's why Newport News named our middle school after Booker T. When you're a child growing up, you don't truly appreciate the history behind the name of a school, a park, or a name on a library. I knew a little bit about Booker, but the difference is, I now appreciate our history so much more. I'm 50, so that is surely why.
Civil Rights Movement didn't begin in '50s, it REVIVED in '50s. Its roots can be traced all the way back to colonial era when colonials wanted to free their slaves, but the King Of England forbade it. Also see the advent of abolitionist movement(s) under Ben Franklin in PA followed by men like Douglas & Garrison, or the "Radical" Republicans Stevens & Sumner. The Underground Railroad & many abolitionist supporters who were engaged & the reconstruction era that followed Civil War.
@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.
Booker T Washington giving me that Yacub vibes. I always worry about the motives of someone who was picked on or ostracized by his own race as a child/young man.
Your analysis is wrong Washington was continuously popular his entire life. Read books not biased against him the anti Washington perspective is dominant today due to historians who favor Dubois Dubois was not popular and well known in his lifetime Seriously Duboises got kicked out of the NAaCp because he Seasiders self segregation can be positive. Duboise was a good historian and was friends with other historians Also Duboise constantly took credit for others works Search Duboise and plaserism The niagra movement was 35 guys then later less than 200 members 300 children a year in the 1920s were named after Booker t Washington Your video shows a Dubois slant which is ridiculous but Duboise did a great job befriending Ivy League people most responsible for history books BOOKER t was the most popular African American amongst African Americans in his day he had no equals except jack johnson
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.

No group is a monolith except those who under very authoritarian governments

I grew up in Newport News, Virginia. I attended Booker T. Washington Middle School from 86-89. Love this documentary! Thank you! 🤗🇺🇸
❤ this great black leader who
Founded a black college.
Dr.tyrone Williams of Chester PA
Very enlightening. We need this, keep going ✊🏿
WEB Dubois vs. Booker T Washington is like Malcolm X vs. Martin Luther King Jr.
Very similar work on your analogy though

We would be in control of America had we listened to Booker T Washington. And planned 200 years ahead
Control of America is a big stretch lol. But certainly in a better situation.
Booker T Washington all day EVERYDAY!!!!
Great commentary
Superb content!
This was so informative and balanced. I better understand the nuance of what was going on at the time.

Right? All “progressives” I hear call him coon and a trader to his race… unreal, God rest his soul
Great content, your diction is quite good as well. Keep up the great work!
thank you fam for the support!
thank you fam, im trying
Thank you!
thank you for listening!

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

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

Love the content
7:50 where have you heard this before?
Well done!
Please, please, please, please. When Booker died, Ida B. Wells, said, "This closes the dark era of Civil Rights."

Real Talk
People need to learn about Haskalah
Please read Death in 60 days..who Silenced Booker T Washington .. By Paulett Horton.. she is a good friend of mine. ..
Both men were right! FBA B1
Booker was the man and had the better plan😎
The man's name is properly pronounced: du bwah. It is a French surname from which part of his ancestry derives.

@@MYWonderfulRBWorld01Hmmm, bars, I didn't even think about that part with Malcolm X. You right an exact. But Dubois wasn't a Haitian immigrant.
Dubois had it wrong. Booker had it right.
Be it so but make no mistake Dubois has crucial elements that are healthy symbiotic

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

Read ing Booker T Washington learn to write and read build your own school
Great presentation, pretty sure Jesse Lee Peterson is Booker T. Washington reincarnate… lol
Mother of God💀
Stop
WEB DuBois all day
Your analysis is wrong Washington was continuously popular his entire life. Read books not biased against him the anti Washington perspective is dominant today due to historians who favor Dubois
Dubois was not popular and well known in his lifetime
Seriously Duboises got kicked out of the NAaCp because he Seasiders self segregation can be positive.
Duboise was a good historian and was friends with other historians
Also Duboise constantly took credit for others works
Search Duboise and plaserism
The niagra movement was 35 guys then later less than 200 members
300 children a year in the 1920s were named after Booker t Washington
Your video shows a Dubois slant which is ridiculous but Duboise did a great job befriending Ivy League people most responsible for history books
BOOKER t was the most popular African American amongst African Americans in his day he had no equals except jack johnson
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.

What. Washington is unpopular
@@drapetomania2156
What?? What are you even
Saying??
*Up until the Atlanta Compromise
I think no matter which way we went Du Bois or Washington we would still be in the same position today
I live near a public housing apt building name after this guy apparently in Virginia lmao
