edition of speech by Booker T. Washington
Not who you're looking for? Others named Atlanta Compromise: speech by Booker T. Washington
“So thoroughly did he learn the speech and thought of triumphal commercialism, and the ideals of material prosperity, that the picture of a lone black boy poring over a French grammar amid the weeds and dirt of a neglected home soon seemed to him the acme of absurdities. One wonders what Socrates and St. Francis of Assisi would say to this.”
