W.E.B. Du Bois, Booker T. Washington, and Mary McLeod Bethune had differing philosophies regarding African American advancement. Du Bois advocated for immediate civil rights and higher education for the "Talented Tenth," emphasizing political activism and intellectual development. In contrast, Washington promoted vocational training and economic self-reliance, believing that gradual progress through industrial education would eventually lead to social equality. Trotter, a contemporary of both, criticized Washington's accommodationist approach, arguing for a more assertive stance against racial discrimination and advocating for civil rights.
DuBois
WEB Dubois and Booker T. Washington were both major leaders in the Civil Rights Movement. If WEB Dubois were to criticize Washington it may be that he felt that Washington was too narrow minded and holding back the blacks in America.
