Washington was the head of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute and under his leadership, it became a leading school in the country. Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute had 1,500 students, 200 member faculty and a $2 million endowment. He also taught much of his beliefs in the curriculum, as biography.com states, "Washington put much of himself into the school's curriculum, stressing the virtues of patience, enterprise, and thrift. He taught that economic success for African Americans would take time, and that subordination to whites was a necessary evil until African Americans could prove they were worthy of full economic and political rights." This quote is showing that Washington put much of his virtues and thoughts into the school and teaching the students that patience was the key to economic success for African Americans and must behave to the white people until they can prove their worth to them. This would be Washington's wallpaper because he was the head and founder and a teacher at the school and poured all his virtues and beliefs into the curriculum to help African Americans win the battle for equality.]]> 2017-11-09 23:23:57 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205539561 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205544809 The first picture that would be in Booker T Washington's phone is a picuture of Theadore Roosevelt. In October of 1901, President Theadore Roosevelt invited Booker T Washington for a dinner at the white house. Washington was the first African American to eat at the white house. This event portrayed racial equality and friendship, as TheGilderLehrmen states, "Washington was an important ally for Roosevelt. The new president needed advice about appointments in the South and about the black vote, and looked to Washington for guidance." This quote portrays a sense of friendship between Theadore Roosevelt and Booker T Washington, and more importantly racial friendship/equality between the black and white people. Obviously the white southerners were not happy about this racial equality event, and Washington received numerous death threats, but is still today considered a major step toward racial equality. Booker T Washington would have a picture of Theadore Roosevelt because of the invitation of Washington to the white house, which represent friendship and racial equality.]]> 2017-11-10 00:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205544809 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205553526 "Up From Slavery" is Booker T Washington's autobiography. Written in 1901, is the prime source for Washington's social and historical philosophy. Though many Americans thought of this book as indignation, others saw him as a hero and were motivated by his beliefs. This picture of his autobiography would be in Booker T Washington's phone because his beliefs and virtues talked about in the book were inspiring and motivating to most African Americans who not wanted to act in violence, but be respectful to the white Americans, to earn their freedom and respect in the long run. "Up From Slavery" is one of Washington's biggest achievements.]]> 2017-11-10 01:16:49 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205553526 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205558143 in 1872, Washington left his home and walked 500 miles to Virginia, to Hampton University, finding many jobs on the way to support himself. He managed to convince the administrators to let him attend the school and work as a janitor to pay for tuition, where the head counselar gave him a scolarship after seeing his hard work. General Armstrong was his mentor and taught him all the values and beliefs that he believed in later in life. Armstrong taught him about the virtue of patience and respect to the white people, in order to get respect back. Booker T Washington would have a picture of his mentor, General Armstrong in his phone because Armstrong taught him all of the virtues that he knows and applied to his teachings later in life.]]> 2017-11-10 01:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205558143 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205558927 DuBois: 
You're beliefs of virtue of patience is a terrible strategy to get our community social and economic progress. You're asking us to respect the white people, when all they do is treat us like lesser people!

Washington:
But why would we take action against the whites? We would prove nothing but that our people are filled with violence and hatred, we would never gain our equality. My way gets the blacks equality without the white people hating us, it is the smarter way.

DuBois:
We would have to wait years for all we know to get social and economic progress with your strategy, why not just take action right away and get our equality as soon as possible?

Washington:
There would be many casualties if we take action. My strategy is the most safest and smartest way to get our equality. I want to teach my students that patience is the key to get equality, if we respect the white people, they will eventually see our worth and respect us back.

Booker T Washington is likely to have a argumentative conversation with a civil rights activist during his time, and enemy, W.E.B DuBois. Both DuBois and Washington wanted to reach a similar goal: to get social and economic equalities as the whites, but they had different strategies to attain it. Washington believed in patience, and respect to the white people. In which they will eventually respect the blacks back, as he taught his students at Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. DuBois did not agree with Washington and had the exact opposite way of achieving equality, to take action right away and fight against the whites. ]]> 2017-11-10 02:00:19 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205558927 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205562595 Sprinkle of Jesus is an app where it sends daily motivational quotes to you. Since Washington was an inspirational and motivational person, he would use a motivational app where quotes would spark his motivational/inspirational speeches and quotes. A quote from his famous speech, "The Atlanta Compromise speech", he states, "No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem." In the quote, he is expressing his belief that there is the same amount of dignity in tilling a field, which african american slaves would do as there is in writing a poem, which white people would do. Showing that no race can really prosper till it learns that. This could be an example where Washington would use Sprinkle of Jesus to get a motivational quote to use it in his speech.]]> 2017-11-10 02:31:33 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205562595 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205565260 This app is for writing books and stories. Booker T Washington enjoyed writing books. Washington has written over 10 books in his lifetime, including his most famous book, his autobiography named "up from slavery". This app would be on Washington's phone because he is an author and would have written many of his famous books on this app, including "My Larger Education", "The story of a Negro", and "Up From Slavery" and could have written drafts on this app, making it easier to create the book since he could categorize the characters, rising action, etc in the app.]]> 2017-11-10 02:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205565260 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205566546 Notes is an app where notes and information can be jotted down and saved. Booker T Washington was a teacher at the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. He could have taken notes on the Notes app to prepare for the curriculum for the day and prepare for what he was going to talk about for the day. Washington had 1500 students to teach and with this app, it would have been much easier for him to plan out the course and class curriculum by jotting down lesson plans, speeches he would say, and anything he would want to talk about.]]> 2017-11-10 03:05:46 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205566546 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205569905 "Take these broken wings and learn to fly"

This line shows how Booker T Washington started out from nothing, being a slave during his childhood. Then traveling 500 miles alone to get a scolarship to Hampton University. To then founding a college and teaching his students his virtues and beliefs of equality. To then speaking one of the most influential and motivational speeches in history called the Atlanta Compromise Speech. This song would be on Booker T Washington's phone because Washington came from nothing to one of the most influential African Americans in history by studying hard and following his beliefs, it resembles his life story of starting from the bottom and succeeding through hard work and dedication.]]> 2017-11-10 03:43:20 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205569905 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205571584 "Don't you know that patience is a virtue, and life is a waiting game"

This lyric shows how patience is a virtue in life and you should never rush into something in life. Booker T Washington beileved in patience being a virtue and did not want to fight against the white people or riot against them, but rather respect them in order for them to eventually respect him and the blacks back, he even stresses it in his autobiography, "Up from Slavery. This song would be on Washington's phone because Booker T Washington preaches how patience is a virtue and equality will be achieved with patience.]]> 2017-11-10 04:02:37 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205571584 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205573279 "Don't stop believin' hold on to the feeling"

This lyric is a motivational quote saying that you shouldn't stop believing even if you think you will never succeed. Booker T Washington's strategy of racial equality had some African Americans believing that it will not work, and that they should just take action and fight against the whites. Washington's strategy was the smarter and safer way by not using violence. This led people to believe that this strategy would never work due to people not taking action. This song would be in Booker T Washington's phone because it would motivate him and others not to stop believing in his strategy to gain equality.]]> 2017-11-10 04:28:28 UTC https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205573279 stefan_vukmanovic https://padlet.com/stefan_vukmanovic/wzijdt740uq1/wish/205667690 https://www.biography.com/people/booker-t-washington-9524663
