Why is Booker T Washington famous?
r T. Washington was born into slavery, but freed as a child. He became educated, and was one of the first black men to promote education among the African-American population. During the early 1900's he was a key figure in the early civil rights movement, advocating fellow African-Americans to join the workforce and become educated in order to have a greater impact on society, and thereby gain equality over time. One of his famous statements about his belief that civil rights would come by hard work and education is "It is at the bottom of life that we must begin, not at the top." Around this same time, the NAACP was formed and men like W.E.B. Dubois were advocating civil rights protests to gain equality immediately, and labeled Washington "The Great Accommodator". However, Washington stood firm, believing that cooperation with white men in power was a better way to overcome racism in the long run than confrontation. Booker T's stance gave him the support of many white politicians and philanthropists, allowing him to further his cause of education for African Americans. Because of his accomplishments in being one of the first leaders to attempt to bring the races together, Washington was honored with being the first African American invited to the White House, the first pictured on a postage stamp, and has had dozens of schools around the nation named after him. Much of the success of the later civil rights movement with Martin Luther King, Jr.

What was the horse and buggy era like?
The horse & buggy era was more advanced than we actually assume now. People used a fairly good vocabulary, they had long haul railroads in America, Canada, & Britain, as well as in Germany and other parts of Europe. Horse drawn street cars on tracks. High rise buildings in large cities with
elevators starting from the time of Lincoln, phones in big cities in the 1890s. Photography was common after 1850. The telegraph crossed the Atlantic about 1860. They had flight with Gas Balloons, River steamboats, & steam engines in seagoing ships, even Battleships and early machine guns in the military. Strangely, very few people aside from the rich and soldiers knew how to ride a horse. They used simple buggies with the one horse they might own or share with their extended family. Things were made in factories out of metal with the same basic machines we use today. They had home gramaphone record players, 3D stereo parlor viewers, and even the first generation of movie theaters before many people owned a car, or road a bus to work.
