What was the cause of Booker T washingtons death?
The medical records of Booker T. Washington, the famous African-American who founded the Tuskegee Institute, have recently been re-examined during a medical conference at the University of Maryland. When Washington died in 1915 after suffering from headaches, fatigue, and weight loss, his doctor wrote in his records that Washington died of "racial characteristics." This generic term often refered to either high blood pressure or syphilis. At the medical conference this year, it was determined that Booker T. Washington died of high blood pressure.
