Born and raised a slave, Booker T. Washington rose from subjugation to become the voice of post-Reconstruction black America. In his 1901 autobiography, Washington chronicles more than forty years of his life, from his childhood on a Virginia plantation to founding an Alabama school for freedmen and minorities. At the heart of Washington’s teachings were the inspiring qualities he himself possessed in order to climb: self-reliance, hard work, perseverance, and a passion for education.

A BEACON FOR ALL
Revisado: 08-26-22
This autobiography by Booker T Washington should be a must read in middle and again in high school. During a time of extreme difficulty, high hurdles and headwinds, Booker grows with undaunted determination to acquire an education and then provide his services to educate with the objective of elevating and providing opportunity to a recently freed population that has been held back and still faced adversity to progress.
Although Booker describes his youth on the plantations, Booker’s autobiography doesn’t dwell on where he came from, but concentrates on a brighter future for all with the elevation of “his race” to the benefit of all.
Booker’s selfless life and spirit are a shining light that gives hope to all.
