How does earl thorpe account for the popularity of booker t. washington among blacks in his day?

Correct

He was a revolutionary leader.

Booker T. Washington was born in 1856 and died in 1915, was an African-American man who was enslaved in Virginia and grew up on a plantation in West Virginia.

For the historian Earl Thorpe the first positive results of Booker Washington were his philosophy and the program of life for the masses of blacks in the United States. A life program that offered opportunities or space for initiative, advancement, growth and maturity. Washington offered an advance to his race and not a retreat and conceived himself as a revolutionary leader.
