How Did Booker T Washington Write Up From Slavery

I believe that Booker T. Washington's book Up From Slavery is the most dramatic record of Washington's dedication to the education of black Americans. The book tells about his struggle for education and how Booker T. Washington strives even harder to make sure that black Americans have education. Washington became one of the most influential African-American intellectuals of the late 19th century. He preached a philosophy of self-help, racial solidarity, and accommodation. He advised black Americans to accept discrimination for the time being and concentrate on elevating through hard work and material prosperity. Honestly, in my opinion, if I
were living during that time, Booker T. Washington would have been my one of my idols, even today. By sharing his personal experiences to the world, it would've pushed me to work harder to attend school and to train many more African-Americans just as Booker T. Washington did. To me, promoting economic progress of the African-American race was extremely important around this time. Many African-Americans needed the motivation to be independent and to have an education under their belt to back them up. I believe that if many young men and women today, took their time out to read about Booker T. Washington and also his book Up From Slavery, that it would change their minds about how important education really is. Especially in the African-American race. I feel that if Booker T. Washington was alive today, he would be very disappointed in the youth and how they brush off education as if it doesn't mean anything. Most importantly, he would be very proud of the individuals who overcame their struggles to get an education.
