Booker T. Washington was a prominent advocate for industrial education for African Americans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He believed that vocational training would provide practical skills and economic opportunities, helping blacks achieve self-sufficiency and improve their social status. Washington founded the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama to promote this form of education, emphasizing the importance of manual labor and trades. His approach was seen as a way to uplift the black community through practical means rather than immediate social or political equality.
