Read the quotation by Booker T. Washington. "More and more, we must learn to think not in terms of race or color, or language, o
r religion, or political boundaries, but in terms of humanity." Based on this quotation, Washington believed that 1. a persons value is not determined by their race, language, or religion.
2. racial equality is an impossible goal.
3. racial and political differences prevent people from coming together.
4. people with certain political beliefs have more humanity.
The correct answer is the first one: a person's value is not determined by their race, language, or religion. According to the quotation he believed that the differences do prevent people from coming together but this is not true and people shouldn't look at these differences since the differences don't really exist because they are all human and that we should judge based on how good of a person they might be and not judge based on outside appearance.
Booker T. Washington was born in slavery and was able to become a teacher. He believed that a person's value should not be determined by their race, language, or religion. From his role as a leader, he encouraged black people to accept discrimination in exchange for receiving education.
Among other things, he went down in history for having delivered the first racial speech (the Atlanta Compromise Speech). In it, Washington showed his philosophy of self-help and promoted social and racial accommodation.
