This is the great debate. Booker T. Washington believed that the Negro way to respect and acceptance was through industry and hard work. He backed his belief up by founding the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute to train black men and women who wanted to have a skill that could be offered to the white community in a non-threatening manner. \n\nMr. Washington gave a speech to the Atlanta Exposition in  1895. This speech which gained him national accalaim because it outlined his ideas about how black Americans should not seek civil and political equality. His speech was appalauded by white Southerns, and distinguished him as one of the greatest  black men of his generation. \n\nW.E.B. Dubois was of the opinion that his speech was a spit in the face to black men and women of ability and talent Mr.Washington's speech in his opinion left white southerners believing they were justified in their anti-black policies. \n\nI urge you to read Dubois "The Soul of Black Folks"\nAs well as Booker T. Washington's "Up from Slavery"\n\nW.E.B. Dubois: Born 23 February 1868, Name: William Edward Burghardt DuBois. Born in Great Barrington Massachusetts. \n\nBooker T.Washington: \nBorn: As Mr Washington states in his autobiography he is unt certain of the date. puting it at around 1858 or 1859. He was born a slave on a plantation in Franklin County Virginia. \n\nI would say, putting all political beliefs aside. The major differences between these two men is one was born free, and the other was born in bondage. I cannot begin to describe or understand the thinking of a man who spent the early years of his life enslaved. \n\n\nDubois was a free man with access to his own person. To education at a young age. He was a very intelligent man. He had all of the advantages that Booket T. Washington did not. Ask yourself was it fair for men such as Dubois to spend their lives as second class citizens because of there color. Not their ability.

Yes i do know him, but all to well. He was the one who came up with the idea of how to control blacks. This is what is meant by black following that old slave masters plan. People say that blacks should forget the past and move on. Black have move on, but they still follow his plan, by forgetting the past.\n\nHis plan was genius that the only reason they could control them for so long. His plan was to control them mentally, by cause them to enslave each other. If blacks knew this they would stop the habit that are hurting them. just because they know they are following the slave masters plan.

Not me. In fact, I'd love to see a show or movie by a black person that, for ONCE, is about something OTHER than being black. Actually, I'D like to make a cartoon called "The Projects" about a white family that moves into the hood, making "social commentary" about the locals' stereotypical love of crack, fried chicken, and shiny things, and the blatant anti-white prejudice espoused by said culture. I wonder then if as many black people would embrace my show as moronic white kids do "Boondocks."

If you're talking about the American statesman, no he wasn't black. He was the illegitimate son of James Hamilton (of a prominent Scottish family) and Rachel Faucett Lavien (daughter of a doctor-planter on Nevis and the estranged wife of a merchant).\n\nYou can see a picture of him here: http://www.americanrevwar.homestead.com/files/HAMILT.HTM
