![Page 41: Ppt 10 rise of jim crow](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042706/58ae0ee31a28aba3178b595d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
African American Response• Ida B. Wells - was from

Europe• Eventually she was run out

African American Response• Booker T. Washington was an
educator who started the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama.
• Delivered the “Atlanta Compromise Speech”
• This college focused on the many things including inventions made from the peanut
• Didn’t argue for political rights…instead urge blacks to get an education—this was very controversial in the south
![Page 43: Ppt 10 rise of jim crow](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042706/58ae0ee31a28aba3178b595d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
The Compromise• On the one hand, Washington warned white America of the
consequences of ignoring racial abuse or "efforts to curtail the fullest growth of the Negro." He said that "we shall constitute one third of the ignorance and crime of the south or one-third of its intelligence and progress. One-third to the business and prosperity...or we shall prove a veritable body of death, stagnating, depressing, retarding every effort to advance the body politic." However, Washington also argued that "The wisest among my race understand that the agitation of questions of social equality is the extremest folly, and that progress in the enjoyment of all the privileges that will come to us must be the result of severe and constant struggle rather than of artificial forcing."
