Sumario: | Scholars have sought, over many decades, to understand the mystique surrounding Booker T. Washington. He is an enigma and continues to be lauded by those who offer him and his ideas as a model for Black Progress.

He sought to both make sense of his world, then to manipulate that world in order to obtain from it those things. |
