What advice for advancement did booker t washington offer to african americans

Washington was known as a racial accommodationist. He rejected the pursuit of political and social equality with whites in favor of developing vocational skills and a reputation for stability and dependability. In a famous 1895 Atlanta address, Washington urged African Americans to "cast down your buckets where you are," that is, to remain in the Jim Crow South and tolerate racial discrimination rather than make what he considered intemperate calls for equality. "In all things that are purely social," he said, blacks and whites "can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress." As the President of Tuskegee Institute, Booker T. Washington developed an extensive network of contacts that gave him influence with white political leaders and philanthropists as well as black businessmen, journalists and college Presidents

he believed that strong monarchies would lead to social and political stability.
