DuBois believed that African Americans should attack racism. He was involved in the founding of the NAACP, which took many cases of racial discrimination to court in an effort to get the nation to live up to the promises of the 13th and 14th Amendments.

Washington believed that African Americans should cooperate with whites and accept temporary segregation to get along with southern whites. He thought that racial equality would come gradually.

Booker T. Washington promoted a philosophy of self-help and racial unity. He suggested Blacks forget about racial discrimination for the moment and focus on raising themselves up by hard work and material prosperity. W.E.B Dubois, a black intellectual, held that Washingtonâ??s methods only served to perpetuate white oppression. He advocated civil rights and political action to bring about equality.

Booker T. Washington focused on having education for real life jobs and not asking for equality from the whites. He just focused on getting help from the whites and accepting their place as blacks on earth. W. E. B. Dubois focused on the exact opposite things that of Booker T. Washington. Dubois focused on blacks being book smart to get any where in life. It was a political strategy.
