A similarity between W.E.B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington was that both supported full racial equality.

Explanation:

-W.E.B. Du Bois was an African-American human rights activist and academician of the first half of the 20th century. He is sometimes referred to as the 'father of Pan Africanism'. He thought that blacks in America needed pride to rise up in a society dominated by whites.  Based on this belief, he founded the NAACP in 1909.

-Booker T. Washington was an educator, speaker and leader of the African American community. He was educated at the Hampton Institute and the Wayland Seminary, after being released from slavery. In 1881 he was appointed as the first leader of the recent Tuskegee Institute of Alabama, which, at that time, was a university for teacher training for African Americans.

Washington believed that education was the key to the black community ascending in the economic-social structure of the United States. He became their leader and spokesman at the national level. Although his style of non-confrontation was criticized by some, he was very successful in his relationships with great philanthropists such as the Rockefeller family, who sponsored thousands of dollars of education at Hampton and Tuskegee and made donations to promote legal change on segregation and voting rights.
