Story on the 1895 Atlanta Compromise done by Booker T Washington…when he said it’s better for Black people to work *within* Jim Crow for exchange for Basic Education & Due Process in law.
He became the most LOVED Black man by the White press/elite during his time.
He also confused his own people, which lead to beef between him and W.E.B. Dubois, co-founder of the NAACP…
