Description
Booker T. Washington’s famous 1901 memoir, Up From Slavery, charts Washington’s rise from an enslaved child with a passion for learning to the nation’s most prominent Black educator and first president of Tuskegee University.
A tireless advocate for Black economic independence, Washington attempted to balance his public acceptance of segregation with behind-the-scenes lobbying against voter disenfranchisement and financing anti–Jim Crow court cases.
His memoir is both a crucial American document and an exercise in understanding the “double consciousness” coined by W.E.B.
DuBois, himself one of Washington’s most vocal critics.
