Answer:

Yes they exercised religious tolerance.

Explanation:

Religious tolerance means people allowing other people to think or practice other religions and beliefs they want. It means the right to freedom of worship.

It took about 150 years after the Peace of Westphalia for most Europeans even to grasp the concept of religious tolerance.

The doctrine of religious toleration started as a result of the war between the Catholic Hapsburgs and newly Protestant nations like Sweden under Gustavus Adolphus which happened as early as the 16th century.During this period, the rulers decided to eradicate religious sentiments.

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

SSSSS [86.1K]

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.
