This quotation is from an article entitled "the talented tenth," written by w. e.b. dubois: "was there ever a nation on god's fair earth civilized from the bottom upward? never; it is, ever was and ever will be from the top downward that culture filters. the talented tenth rises and pulls all that are worth the saving up to their vantage ground. this is the history of human progress." how did dubois's beliefs about achieving equality, as reflected in this quotation, differ from those of booker t. washington?
