Washington, into his circle of counselors in 1901, the two confronted a shocking and violent wave of racist outrage. In the previous decade, Jim Crow laws had legalized discrimination in the South, eroding social and economic gains for former slaves. Lynching was on the rise, and Black Americans faced new barriers to voting. Slavery had been abolished, but if newly freed citizens were condemned to lives as share croppers, how much improvement would their lives really see? In this book, Brian Kilmeade tells the story of how two wildly different Americans faced the challenge of keeping America moving toward the promise of the Emancipation Proclamation. 505 0 $a Born "Booker" -- "Teddie" grows up -- From student to teacher -- Theodore, husband, and writer -- "My life-work" -- Lessons and losses -- "Like clock work" -- Roosevelt the reformer -- The speech that echoed -- America the unready -- The Moses of his people -- A splendid little war -- The crowded hour -- Man in the middle -- The new century dawns -- Death of a president -- Guess who's coming to dinner -- The morning after -- "The negro question" -- Southern discomforts -- Winding down -- Road's end -- Postmortem. 600 10 $a Roosevelt, Theodore, $d 1858-1919. 600 10 $a Washington, Booker T., $d 1856-1915. 650 0 $a Presidents. 650 0 $a African Americans. 650 0 $a Race relations. 650 0 $a Twentieth century. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 941 $a 3 945 $a cdab 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20240404010829.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20240220010616.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20240103010602.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D0D40C40AA0511EE99E4BB4527ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
