In the early years of the 20th century, Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Marcus Garvey developed competing visions for the future of African Americans.
Civil War Reconstruction failed to assure the full rights of citizens to the freed slaves. By the 1890s, Ku Klux Klan terrorism, lynchings, racial-segregation laws, and voting restrictions made a mockery of the rights guaranteed by the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments, which were passed after the Civil War.
The problem for African Americans in the early years of the 20th century was how to respond to a white society that for the most part did not want to treat black people as equals. Three black visionaries offered different solutions to the problem.

Zinn said that study of history should be done from the point of view of the common man. It should not be done from the point of view of the historians or the politicians.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Zinn thought that the way we study history is very boring and that we have been bent under the heavy weight of the history books which lean up on us. They have set from the point of view of the historians and the politicians. This makes it very boring for us to read this subject.
History should rather be studied from the point of view of the common man so that they can understand it better because through this way they can related to it in a better way. When it is told in the form of a story, the interest of the people increases.
