=Welcome:= =This Wiki is dedicated to the life and legacy of Booker Taliaferro Washington, who dedicated his life to the advancement of his race and the betterment of his nation. Although the contents herein were developed for credit in my University of Toledo History of Higher Education course (HED 8010), I have been an admirer of his work and draw equal inspiration for his love of learning since reading his biography //Up From Slavery// (Washington, 1901) a few summers ago (ironically for another class at Wayne State University-History of Career and Technical Education).= = = = = //Source: http://www.nathanielturner.com/atlantaexpositionaddress.htm//
