Actually, Booker T. Washington's message was somewhat controversial, although it depended on whether you were asking white people or black people. Washington, the first president of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama (today Tuskegee University), believed that blacks should move slowly in their quest for racial equality; in fact, he seemed to accept segregation and advocated that black people (then called "Negroes") should not expect to become the social equals of whites, but that they should try to rise as high as possible within their own society. To that end, he advocated empowerment through education and hard work.
White people were very approving of his message, since he did not challenge the status quo. But while most black people agreed with his message of getting as much education as possible and working hard, there were some black people who found his message frustrating. They were tired of being treated like inferiors, and they thought he was too accommodating of prejudiced attitudes. They wanted him, as a black leader, to stand up to the segregationists and demand full equality. But Washington disagreed-- he thought society was not ready for that, which is why he suggested to go slow and achieve the goal step by step.
