agree but i also think it’s important to take in context in terms of washington— in the sense of him being born within slavery! i think this is one of our most harrowing examples of how slavery truly shapes the possibilities you can imagine. i’d love to see washington put into conversation with someone like saidiya hartman. so we can see how we’re negotiating possibility as we move forward”further away from slavery” in terms of years but stay close to it psychologically, institutionally, etc

I think Booker definitely was a complicated man who saw the world in a way that he thought being accommodating would gain the best interest for Black people. I don’t agree at all, the kowtowing and subservience didn’t make white folks treat him any better. But he was also enslaved and that’s something DuBois couldn’t relate to either and that does something to a person. Dubois lost me with the talented tenth thing — we need ALL types of Black people contributing to liberation and farmers and sharecroppers have an ancestral knowledge that we’ve been removed from that’s still valid. Dubois was also a radical and I appreciate him for his sharpness as well

I think he wrote that book specifically for the purpose of getting the funding and to keep his people from getting lynched. And I can respect that even if some of the stuff he was saying is absolutely flabbergasting to my modern Black sensibilities. I didn’t fully mesh with his nor Du Bois’ ideologies/methodologies in full. Du Bois didn’t understand that the minds of institutional racists in America were not going to change no matter how talented Black ppl were or how comparably well we could be treated overseas until it was too late (i.e. he was already old and the intra-classist rhetoric was already solidified). Ida B. Wells was the best of them in my opinion. She wanted Black people to get a fair shake out of politics (not just Black men), stop getting lynched, and have access to education regardless of their circumstances
