Booker T. Washington aimed to change the social and economic status of African Americans in the post-Reconstruction United States. He advocated for vocational education and self-help, believing that through practical skills and economic self-sufficiency, African Americans could gradually gain respect and equality in society. Washington promoted a philosophy of accommodation, urging African Americans to focus on personal advancement rather than immediate civil rights activism. His approach emphasized patience and a gradual approach to achieving racial uplift and integration.
