| | 1 | Author: | Washington, Booker T. | Add | | | Title: | Tuskegee: A Retrospect and Prospect  | | | | Published: | 1995 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | | Description: | THE Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute celebrates this
year on April 4, 5 and 6, its twenty-fifth birthday. As I look
back at its humble beginnings, and its gradual growth into what it
is, and the promise of what it shall be, it seems to me that one of
its more important services has been to provide Negroes with an
unusual opportunity to engage in the education and upbuilding of
their own race. This school represents, in a large measure, the
effort of the Negro race to help itself, and therein is the real
significance of its work. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
