well i'm sure you realize truth is treason these days Mike......~S~I see no reason why he should not be honored.
Make it a Black Monday?This great man who was born into slavery, rose above it and provided education countless thousands of other former Black slaves and Black Americans so that they could lead successful lives. I'm all for a Booker T Washington Day, I see no reason why he should not be honored.
Sure why not?Make it a Black Monday?

Why?Maybe we can build statues to replace those Robert E Lee statues
Why do you want to erase our history? It is what it is, good and bad.Maybe we can build statues to replace those Robert E Lee statues

Would you hang a portrait of a man that murdered your grandmother in your living room?Why?
Why not have less statues?
But you just advocated to "ignore" Robert E Lee by taking down his statues. Lee was a great man thrust into a terrible situation. That is why FDR honored him with one of many statues made in his honor.Booker T Washington IS an American hero
He deserves statues in Southern States more than Lee
Lee’s history of abandoning his country to fight for slavery Shoukd not be ignored
That's a bit dramatic.Would you hang a portrait of a man that murdered your grandmother in your living room?
Intergenerational trauma is real.That's a bit dramatic.

I disagree. So what do you think of Booker T Washington day? Or did you just show up to try and derail my thread?No way should we ignore Lee
Children should learn he abandoned his country to fight for slavery
Statues of Confederate “heroes” should be replaced with statues honoring the slaves and those who fought to free them
Your analogy was over the top, that's all I'm saying.Intergenerational trauma is real.
I don’t see much difference at all. In both cases we get forced to view someone who was responsible for the death of ancestorsYour analogy was over the top, that's all I'm saying.
I'm old enough to remember Booker T. They didn't look very black to me.
The thread is about Booker T Washington, if you want to believe Robert E Lee killed your ancestors that's fine with me.I don’t see much difference at all. In both cases we get forced to view someone who was responsible for the death of ancestors
That’s not what I’m talking about and you know itThe thread is about Booker T Washington, if you want to believe Robert E Lee killed your ancestors that's fine with me.
