Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois are two well-known thinkers who were very influential during the Reconstruction period. These two characters debated on the best way to achieve equality for Black people. However, they had very different visions.

Booker T. Washington took a more "conciliatory" approach to the issue of civil rights. He believed that the best strategy to follow was that of asking for some things (education, agriculture and economics) while not asking for others (such as the vote and social integration).

W.E.B. DuBois disagreed with many of these ideas. He supported complete equality. Moreover, he did not believe that Black people should compromise on this. Instead, he believed that Black people had the right to demand this right with no compromise.
