What would he think of black Americans today?
>>18410385probably the same reaction as MLKJr in that boondocks episodei imagine out of all the prominent black figures prior to the 1965, Booker T Washington would probably endure the greatest heartbreak
>>18410385>I freed you niggas for this????
>>18410402You think he'd be heartbroken by the massive strides people made, or the fact that a black person can and do attend universities like their peers do alongside massice strides in civil rights. You do Booker and Frederick were both born into and grew up in slavery?
>>18410385>how the fuck did y'all go from singing spirituals to rapping about shooting each other?
>>18410385He would obviously be thrilled, you racist fucks. African Americans have made amazing progress since the end of slavery.During Douglas' lifetime, only around 2% of black Americans could read and write. Today, that number is nearly 60%. That's a 40 times increase.
I always think this photo of Douglas is Marx at first glance
>>18410463If you turned his head upside down, maybe
>>18410463lel I've thought that Marx looks like a white version of Douglass
>>18410402>i imagine out of all the prominent black figures prior to the 1965, Booker T Washington would probably endure the greatest heartbreakA liberal black nationalist such as Booker would've naturally despaired at the Integrationist pseudo-victory that did little to uplift his race, yes.He most likely would've thrown his lot with the Ho-Teps as the BPs were too Commie for a classic liberal.
>>18410385Everyone from the 1800s would despair seeing their people today. There are no exceptions to this.
>murder down>rap on a rapid decline>unemployment gap droppedit was business as usual until very recently in the last 4 years things have stopped looking as hopeless
>>18410385>Shieeeeettttt
>>184103851: "What the fuck actually happened to my people?!"2: "You know what, I kind of get it now".
