About The Awakening of the Negro (Unabridged)

Booker T. Washington's essay "The Awakening of the Negro" was published in the September 1896 issue of The Atlantic . It is a semi-autobiographical essay that sets forth Washington’s vision of uplifting his people. He relates how his work began at Tuskegee, Alabama, in 1881, in a small shanty and church without a dollar’s worth of property. The spirit of work and of industrial thrift, with aid from the state and generosity from the North, enabled them to develop an institution of 800 students from 19 states. The author saw the South as still undeveloped and encouraged Afro-Americans to take an industrial education as those skills were needed and would contribute to developing the South.
