Download or read book A Boy s Life of Booker T Washington Classic Reprint written by W. C. Jackson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Boy's Life of Booker T. Washington The single aim in telling the story that follows is to interest boys in the life of Booker T. Washington. This man's life was of such singular and vital importance in the history of his own race and in the history of our country that it ought to be familiar to all the youth of the land, and to the negro youth especially, since it is the greatest inspiration to the latter to be found in the annals of American history. There has been no attempt to be original or exhaustive in the treatment. While a great mass of material has been consulted, it should be frankly stated that the story follows very closely the material found in Washington's Up from Slav ery and My Larger Education and Scott and Stowe's Booker T. Washington: Builder of a Civilization. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Boy's Life of Washington IT might almost seem presumptuous for any one to offer another version of the life of Washington, when the ground has been so fully occupied by worthier pens. After Marshall, Sparks, and Irving have written, who indeed need take up the subject Yet it was suggested that a boys' life of this great man might still be welcomed by the public, and would find readers among the rising generation those who would shrink from a larger work, and yet could find enjoyment in a little book like this.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Booker T. Washington: Builder of a Civilization This is not a biography in the ordinary sense. The exhaustive Life and Letters of Booker T. Washington re mains still to be compiled. In this more modest work we have simply sought to present and interpret the chief phases of the life of this man who rose from a slave boy to be the leader of ten millions of people and to take his place for all time among America's great men. In fact, we have not even touched upon his childhood, early training, and education, because we felt the story of those early strug gles and privations had been ultimately Well told in his own words in Up from Slavery. This autobiography, however, published as it was fifteen years before his death, brings the story of his life only to the threshold of his greatest achievements. In this book we seek to give the full fruition of his life's work. Each chapter is complete in itself. Each presents a complete, although by no means exhaustive, picture of some phase of his life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Booker dreamed of making friends with words, setting free the secrets that lived in books. Born into slavery, young Booker T. Washington could only dream of learning to read and write. After emancipation, Booker began a five-hundred-mile journey, mostly on foot, to Hampton Institute, taking his first of many steps towards a college degree. When he arrived, he had just fifty cents in his pocket and a dream about to come true. The young slave who once waited outside of the schoolhouse would one day become a legendary educator of freedmen.

Washington's journey to learn, to read, and to realize a dream.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Paper Bag Principle: Class, Colorism, and Rumor in the Case of Black Washington, D.C. considers the function of oral history in shaping community dynamics among African American residents of the nation's capitol. The only attempt to document rumor and legends relating to complexion in black communities, The Paper Bag Principle looks at the divide that has existed between the black elite and the black "folk." The Paper Bag Principle focuses on three objectives: to record lore related to the "paper bag principle" (the set of attitudes that granted blacks with light skin higher status in black communities); to investigate the impact that this "principle" has had on the development of black community consciousness; and to link this material to power that results from proximity to whiteness. The Paper Bag Principle is sure to appeal to scholars and historians interested in African American studies, cultural studies, oral history, folklore, and ethnic and urban studies.
