Presentation transcript:

The Progressive Era led to demands for equal rights by African Americans Quick Class Discussion: In what ways were blacks discriminated against? 80% of lived in rural areas in the South, most as sharecroppers Literacy tests and poll taxes limited black voting Jim Crow laws segregated blacks in schools, hotels, restaurants, trains, and other public facilities Plessy v Ferguson (1896) declared that segregation did not violate the 14 th amendment Lynching and violence were common

Black civil rights leaders were divided on how to address racial problems Booker T. Washington was born a slave in Virginia and used hard work and education to become a teacher after the Civil War He founded the Tuskegee Institute, a school to train black workers and teachers On race relations, he argued in favor of accommodation: Blacks should work hard, educate themselves, and earn the rights they wanted

“Our greatest danger is that in the great leap from slavery to freedom, we may overlook the fact that the masses of us are to live by the productions of our hands and fail to keep in our mind that we shall prosper as we learn to dignify and glorify common labor…It is at the bottom of life we should begin and not the top…In all things that are purely social, we can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress.” —Booker T. Washington ”Atlanta Compromise” (1895) Atlanta Cotton States Exposition

WEB DuBois had a very different view of race relations than Booker T. Washington DuBois was born in Massachusetts and was the first black man to earn a doctorate from Harvard …called for immediate civil rights and the promotion of the “Talented Tenth” of young black leaders He opposed Washington’s “Atlanta Compromise” and…

WEB DuBois had a very different view of race relations than Booker T. Washington We claim for ourselves every single right that belongs to a free American, political, civil and social, and until we get these rights we will never cease to protest and assail the ears of America —W.E.B. DuBois

In 1905, DuBois and other black leaders led the Niagara Movement …They demanded an end to segregation and discrimination and economic and educational equality The meeting led to the formation of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1909 to fight for black equality

The NAACP fought voting restrictions and segregation laws by using the 14 th Amendment to file lawsuits WEB DuBois was the most outspoken early member of the NAACP by using The Crisis newsletter to call attention to black causes

Jamaican immigrant Marcus Garvey believed that whites and blacks could not coexist in America In 1907, he founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association to encourage blacks to return to Africa He created a number of businesses to promote Black Nationalism Garvey lost credibility when he was jailed for mail fraud and deported to Jamaica

While women gained voting rights and labor laws… …African Americans were unable to end Jim Crow segregation, stop lynching, or gain economic equality But, black leaders in the Progressive Era inspired later generations to demand changes
