Who is right？
I think Dubois is right.
Because, quality won't comes by it self. In Washington's way, He want to keep things in the old way and let it going, hopes that someday in future  equality will come. Dubois wasn't agree with Washington, he urged blacks be active to seek the equal right. here quote a sentence from" the letter from Birmingham jail" by Martin Luther King "We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed" . as King said, equal must get by demanded, not wait ing for

Question 4:
Considering how divided the South was on race during this time, I think Washington was trying to be diplomatic and cautious. He wanted southern whites to listen to and consider what he said, so he took conservative, baby steps to African American success. However, Du Bois still speaks diplomatically and doesn't ask for anything unreasonable, only the right to vote and educate. It would still be a long time until Du Bois goals were achieved.

Agree and disagree
I thing that Booker T Washing perter a slower way to change racial inequality. he said "enjoyment of all the privilege must come with result of constant struggle rather than of artificial forcing' he urged blacks should work harder so they can get the equal right rather than seek it themslef. Dubios disagree with Washington and think that's a submission.

Question 3:
Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois both wanted productive and fulfilling lives for African Americans. Booker T. Washington believed African Americans should solely help themselves and not be guaranteed civil rights. Du Bois disagreed with this and believed a race could not advanced without equal rights, treatment, and opportunity.

Question 2:
W.E.B. Du Bois was progressive. He promoted hard work and education for African Americans. But even with all the hard work in the world, he believed progress for African Americans would be impossible without equal rights. He believed African Americans should be guaranteed the right to 1. vote 2. civic equality and 3. the education of youth according to ability.

Question 1:
Booker T. Washington was not progressive. He instead tried to appeal to Southern whites to try and help African Americans. He encourages African Americans to be satisfied in uneducated work, and through their hard work eventually seeking more opportunity. Washington says, "No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem."

He believes African Americans are solely responsible to pull themselves up, "We shall constitute one-third and more of the ignorance and crime of the South, or one-third its intelligence and progress." However, he believes they are responsible to do this without social equality. He says, "The wisest among my race understand that the agitation of questions of social equality is the extremest folly." He goes on to say that this equality should come from African Americans hard work and contribution to the economy.

I think W.E.B. Dubois is progressive.
Because, According to the reading. Dubious disagreed with  Booker T Washington's racial Accommodation. and point out its a submission of  racial inequality. he urged blacks should left Booker T Washington's propaganda and  strive for the equal right them self.

Was Booker T Washington progressive?
I think Booker T Washington is not progressive.
Because, according to  " The Atlanta Exposition Address,1895" Booker.T Washington said" the wisest among my race understand that the agitating of question of social equality is the extremest folly." he urged blacks to not seek equal right actively. but wait the equality comes itself. its not progressive.

what they both agreed on was that they wanted african american  progress they both wanted to advance or help the blacks. what they disagree on is rhe way each other went about it, Washington believed in equal educating the youth and that he was ok with following the order of the whiteman as long as blscks where being educated and given economic opportunity.. why debious wanted equality for everyone wanted leaderships of not just whites but blacks too

I am sure that many people who lived then  would be much more comfortable with Washington idea of continuing life as is, and letting the newly freed population work things out for themselves. But where would America be today, if nobody challenged the habits and minds of society? In my opinion, DuBois is on a much better line of thinking, and has much more potential to create good.

# data[].attributes.body
There doesn't seem to be much they agreed on, other than having ideas for the newly freed population. Washington was ready to remain in his current lifestyle, and beliefs, while DuBious was prepared to set things straight.

Reading this document after "The Atlanta Exposition", came as a sort of relief. Duious came out and pointed specifically to the errors in Washington's ways of thinking. Without apparent hesitation, he had the guts to declare the injustice that was intended towards the recent slave population. He declared that "Mr. Washington represents in Negro thought the old attitude of adjustment and submission;" As a result, I believe he is progressive.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, Booker T. Washington was not progressive. Although the way the document is written somehow makes you want to join him on his quest, he is suggesting that america let the slaves, who are now free, continue to do what they have always done, and do all of the heavy lifting in society. He says, "'Nearly 16 millions of hands will aid you in pulling the load upward, or they will pull the load against you downward." Immediately reverting back to old habits, and casting them aside is not progressive in any way.

Based on the reading I thought that W.E.B Dubois was progressive in the aspect of complete equality. He worked to remove barriers for people of color like the Jim Crow Laws and segregation. He wasnt trying to remove any power from the white man, he wanted the same amount of power to the black man as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought Booker T Washington was progressive with making it possible to people of color educated and economic opportunity. Based on the reading what I pulled from it was that people of color would follow what the white man said as long as they get things in return such as children being allowed to get educated.

They both have good arguments and I can see where both of them are coming from but all together we all want our rights. Our rights to vote because we are part of this country no matter race of color and that's what DuBois you could say fought for instead of just going with the flow like Washington.

# data[].attributes.body
They were like polar opposites when it came to the way that they thought. DuBois was all for equality and equal rights. Washington was more of a self help he believed that if you do a better job in a industry then you can get the respect of the whites but doing a good job.

# data[].attributes.body
DuBois was a civil rights actavist and counter argued Booker T Washington about one of his speeches. So yes I would categorize DuBois as a progressive because he wanted change for African Americans

# data[].attributes.body
When reading the document "The Atlanta Exposition Address, 1895" I thought he was kind of for progressivism but when I started to understand it he was saying to give up some of your rights as long as you can work. Which isn't really progressivism since nothing is getting better.

Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois were contemporary activists in the Progressive Era who were both interested in advancing the lives of black Americans.
