Washington was born a slave in the south. DuBois was born free and in the north. Washington believed that blacks should earn rights from hard work. DuBois believed that blacks should have freedom now. Washington said that blacks should stop agitating for voting and civil rights not only in exchange for economic gains and security, but also for reduced anti-black violence.
W.E.B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington were two great leaders of the black community in the late 19th and 20th century. They both had the same intent with their thought but they came from two different backgrounds so it was hard for them to have agreement. Booker T. Washington spent his early childhood in slavery. W. E. B. DuBois grew up both free and in the North. Ergo, he did not experience the harsh conditions of slavery or of southern prejudice he grew up with white Americans and even attended predominately white schools.
Booker T. Washington and W.E.B Dubois are two of the most influential black men of the progressive era. These two men would influence the black community and education to come for many years later. Booker T. Washington was an American educator,author,orator,and adviser who wanted to start his own school. W.E.B Dubois was an American sociologist,socialist,historian,and civil rights activist. Booker T.Washington and W.E.B. Dubois have many similarities.
Two significant figures, Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Dubois, supported African American progress but took very different approaches to achieve this ultimate goal. To begin with, Booker T. Washington emphasized his ideology that the Black Community needs to concentrate on themself. In "The Atlanta Exposition Address," he urged the Black Community to focus on education, hard work, and to accept discrimination. Also, Dubois believed that investing in one's own business would result in economic progress, proving to Whites that the Black Community is beneficial in economic growth. Washington's message was strong in that he sought to show Whites through personal experience that the Black Community could achieve equality.

Achieving African American Equality Booker T. Washington and W.E.B Du Bois were two of the most influential advocates for African American equality during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries (Blatty, 1). Although both men ultimately had the same goal, their methods for achieving African American equality were remarkably different. To begin, the men had conflicting ideas about what constituted as African American equality. Booker T. Washington argued that the accumulation of wealth and the ability to prove that Blacks were productive members of society would be the mark of true equality for African Americans (Painter, 155).
Booker T. Washington believed that in order to eventually achieve racial equality African
Washington was a slave himself, but later down the line the “Atlanta Exposition Address” seemed to hinder some blacks, but W.E.B Dubois took a different route. “That sky was bluest when I could beat my mates at examination-time, or beat them at a foot-race, or even beat their stringy heads.” (Souls of black folk, 922). W.E.B Dubois was determined on passing his classmates and reaching a higher education. W.E.B. Dubois knew that if the blacks followed the rules of Booker T. Washington, they would not be able to advance in society like today.
W.E.B DuBois’ plan was smarter than Booker T. Washington’s because DuBois’ plan was to fight for the rights of African Americans, and give people a good and equal education. Booker T Washington’s plan was to ignore segregation and discrimination so he can just focus on the wealth and education of former slaves to win over the whites acceptance. One part of DuBois’ plan was the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, NAACP. This Association was one of the most influential civil rights organization. It “focused on legal strategies designed to confront the critical civil rights issues.”.
Booker T. Washington & W.E.B. DuBois Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois were both well-known black leaders of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (Muhummad, K., 2013). They were both instrumental in the educational development of African Americans and advocates of civil rights. Although they shared a few similar goals when it came to civil rights for African Americans, due to the vast difference in their upbringing, Washington and DuBois’ strategy for blacks gaining those rights were different (Muhummad, K., 2013). Whereas Washington was a bit more passive, DuBois was more outspoken and confrontational. No matter the differences in their approach, the end goal they had in mind was the same.
The fight against the oppression of African-Americans was an uphill battle until the year 1865, when slavery was officially abolished in the U.S. through the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment. About 30 years later there were many African- American leaders and activists, two of which were Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. Du Bois. In 1895, Booker T. Washington gave a speech at the Cotton States and International Exposition in Atlanta, which is now called "The Atlanta Compromise." Washington's speech became famous for his use of the metaphor "cast down your bucket" that he applied to the African-American community of the South. By “casting down their buckets” he means that remaining in the South and working hard to improve their conditions
Booker T. Washington was born a slave and worked as a janitor to get through school. Whereas W.E.B. Du Bois was born in the North and faced very little discrimination, and had an easier time getting into College. They were well educated, and the only difference between them was how they were raised in different environments. Both were on the journey to improve African American’s social and political status in America. However, they had different methods for getting what they wanted.
W.E.B Dubois and Booker T. Washington, both had different opinions on the best way for African Americans to change their situations, based on education, politics and
There are a few ways that Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. DuBois differ in their strivings for racial equality. The reason that these men differ in their views are pretty apparent and go back to the separate arguments that Jane Addams and Elizabeth Cady Stanton produced for women's rights in the 19th century. Jane Addams made some compromises in her push for women's suffrage to make her argument easier to swallow and take a small step towards equality. Stanton puts out her whole argument for total equality which made her argument hard for her generation to accept, but got all the problems on the table.
