{"product_id":"9781454949992","title":"Up from Slavery : An Autobiography - Booker T. Washington","description":"\u003cp\u003eBooker T. Washington's famous 1901 memoir, Up From Slavery, charts Washington's rise from an enslaved child with a passion for learning to the nation's most prominent Black educator and first president of Tuskegee University. A tireless advocate for Black economic independence, Washington attempted to balance his public acceptance of segregation with behind-the-scenes lobbying against voter disenfranchisement and financing anti-Jim Crow court cases. His memoir is both a crucial American document and an exercise in understanding the \"double consciousness\" coined by W.E.B. DuBois, himself one of Washington's most vocal critics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Booker T.
