The boy learns to hit and be mean to the dog at first from his father. Like how the white progressive southerns listened to the old south. They listened to their grandparents and parents who lived through the old south. This leads to submission because the African Americans are tired and done with fighting. The dog lets the boy hit him just like the African Americans let the white progressive southerns be mean to them because it was easier than fighting. This connects to Booker T. Washington's ideas and his speech on how being nice no matter what is the way to live and survive.]]> 2021-11-10 14:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1881449173 How does this reading help us further our understanding of post-Reconstruction? maddidevey https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1881449174 2021-11-10 14:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1881449174 1-3 main points of the speech maddidevey https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1881449178 2021-11-10 14:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1881449178 What is Booker T.

The way for a people to gain respect is not continually belittling and ridiculing themselves: that, on the contrary, Negroes must insist continually, in season and out of season, that voting is necessary to modern manhood, that color discrimination is barbarism, and that black boys need education as well as white boys. https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887069304

-He appealed to white people because he was willing to allow white supremacy if white people would hire them

He asks that instead of hiring white immigrants that they hire African Americans. He does this by romanticizing the idea of the Lost Cause. He reminds the white people of how loyal the slaves were to them by nursing their children and how they were ready to lay down their lives for their master. He paints a unrealistic idea of slavery in the south because of his audience of white people. 

He describes the Black people as a loyal and faithful group of people that had proved their work ethic in the past. He encourages Black people to take the lower class jobs and stay submissive and quiet in the face of white people. He has seen and experienced the horrors of the south and does not want them to give the white people any reason the dislike them.

In the story the young child represents a new generation of people in the south who want to be fair to the African Americans. The brown dog represents the pressed African Americans. In the begging of the story we see the young boy hitting the dog and abusing the brown dog, then he befriends him in an attempt to protect him. The Father in the story is the Old White supremacist south. At the end of the book the Dog and Child come home to a drunken Father, and the Child ducked under the table while the dog is killed by being thrown out of a taller story window. This story shows that when it comes down to in the new generation in the south will duck and dodge out of the way letting the African Americans getting the backlash and punishment. ]]> 2021-11-12 17:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887109375 He presents the African American people to his white audience by explaining their greivences with Washington and white people appointing him as their leader without their consent.

This story starts out with a child standing on a street corner.  A dark brown dog with a short rope attached to his trots up to the boy.  the dog was timid at first then walked up to the boy. The boy started beating the dog then walked away. this continued as the dog followed the boy home. Once at home the boy had an interview with the dog then the boy dragged the dog up the stairs. as we continued through this story  we see the boy become kind to the dog and be a protection to the dog. at the home the child asks if the dog can be one in the family. The father was reluctant but let this dog into the family. Now in the family everything starts going off the rails. The father starts beating the dog and we see that he does this to the child too. The dog is protected by the child but once the child is gone the Dog gets harmed. In the end the father gets drunk and starts lashing out to everyone. The child hides and the dog doesn't know what's happening so the dog runs to the father. The father then throws the dog out the window. At the end of the story we see the boy over the dead dog.]]> 2021-11-12 17:05:54 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887114987 https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887124217 2021-11-12 17:10:39 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887124217 https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887127204 This helps us further our understanding by providing insight as to not only how much the whites post reconstruction attitude affected the actions of african americans, especially with how they went about attaining the rights they deserve. This is demonstrated by how fine the line Washington walks and how careful he has to be when appealing not only to other blacks but to whites that help back his cause. Having to be careful with his words and with the fear that stops him from voicing in a clear manner what he actually wants african americans to gain. The brutality of post reconstruction whites deterred him from fighting literally for what he wants as a long term goal, helping to divide him from his black counterparts who believed they should go about gaining rights in a different way.]]> 2021-11-12 17:12:04 UTC https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887127204 :) https://padlet.com/maddidevey/49e4ng9ixgj3datu/wish/1887356164 In his writing, DuBois describes how white people have stripped black people of essential rights, including the right to vote, the right to civil equality, and the right to a decent education. From this, readers can infer that there was a time between the Emancipation and the Reconstruction when black people had these rights. DuBois also speaks to the complex interracial dynamic in the South post-Reconstruction. He describes black people as being led by an outsider (Booker T Washington), and acting subservient to white people so as to advance economically. He thus brings to light the struggles many black people face concerning identity, describing the internal struggle between earning money and being treated as human. Finally, through his criticism of Booker T Washington's appeal to white Southerners, DuBois shows the backwardness of Southerners' fantasy about returning to slavery.
