Best Answer

Booker T. Washington was a slave because he lived in the time frame in which African-Americans weren't treated as equals to the whites. He was born into slavery by his mother, Jane. His mother was an enslaved black woman who worked on the Bourrough's Plantation in southwest Virginia. Booker's siblings and mother was freeded of slavery after the Civil was, formally by the 13th Amendment.
