Question

Why did w.e.b du Bois criticize booker .T Washington

Answer 1

Answer:

The first answer! Washington did NOT radically refuse segregation and was passive, not aggressive or extremist. He wanted the educate the black people so that they could earn an important place in the society by learning useful specialized tasks, while Du Bois believed that the Talented Tenth, a group of Ivy League super smart black people, would be the ones who gave their people a better shot at an equal place in society. (He himself was from the Ivies, so there was a bit of a bias.) Washington was known for establishing a successful all-black university.
