Booker T. Washington was a former slave who would manage to get a comprehensive education that allowed him to become the first principal of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, a school for the education African-American teachers. He helped collect funds to open numerous community schools and universities for African-American students. He also lobbied state and federal governments for funding and support of educational venues and opportunities for African-American students. He brokered a famous agreement called the Atlanta Compromise, in which he obtained concessions from the Southern White Establishment in favor of expanding educational venues and opportunities for African-Americans in exchange of their acceptance of Southern White supremacy (though he also secretly funded African American organizations that legally fought to eliminate such supremacy and all other forms of institutional racism and discrimination. He was so popular and accepted that he was the first African-American leader invited to the White house by president Theodore Roosevelt to dine with him and his family which won a great deal of political support for the cause of education opportunities for African Americans.

Answer:

I am Adam Smith

Explanation:

Dear Karl Marx

I write to you to explain, respectfully, why your economic theories are wrong.

First of all, capitalism is not doomed to fail as you say. Capitalism is the best economic system we have developed so far. Capitalism allows the free movement of goods and services, and the accumulation of capital, which leads to economic growth, and the subsequent rise in the standards of living. You yourself recognize this fact.

Secondly, capitalism is not fundamentally unfair. It is true that entrepreneurs tend to earn more than workers, but this is because they risk more than them: they risk their capital and savings, and if the business fails, they could find themselves ruined and in debt.

Finally, I do understand that there are flaws with the system, and I support intelligent intervention to solve these flaws. But it is not socialism nor communism what will solve those flaws.

Sincelery, Adam Smith.

Based on the way things went over time, one can say that the popularity of Ali's stance increased positively.

Muhammed Ali refused to fight with the American army during the Vietnam war after he was called up to serve.
He claimed that because he was a Black Muslim, he was allowed to be a conscientious objector.

At the time he refused to serve, feelings of patriotism and anti-communism were at an all time high and so he was berated for his decision. Within the decade however, anti-war sentiment spread across the United States and led to Ali being praised for his decision.
