In Vladimir’s case‚ he chooses to spend his time waiting for Godot

Booker T. Vs. W.E.B. DuBois Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois were both prominent figures in the African American Community following radical reconstruction. Although they were both very powerful members of the African American community‚ they held polar opposite views. Booker T. believed that if Blacks formed a strong work force and became essential to the Southern economy‚ that whites would have no choice but to give equal rights and equal respect to them. W.E.B.

“A little less complaint and whining‚ and a little more dogged work and manly striving‚ would do us more credit than a thousand civil bills.” This is a quote from W.E.B.

W.E.B. Du Bois’s idea of double-consciousness in my opinion relates to the struggle of being black and being an American.
