Read the quotation from booker t. washington's 1895 atlanta compromise speech. “[p]rogress in the enjoyment of all the privileges that will come to us must be the result of severe and constant struggle rather than of artificial forcing.” in this quotation, washington is expressing his view that working toward equality is not a realistic goal. the government cannot legislate equality. unconstitutional laws should be challenged in court. only some people deserve to have certain privileges.
