Explanation:

Booker Washington was a great speaker, one of the prominent educators and advocates of enlightenment for African Americans. In September 1895, at the opening of a trade and industrial exhibition in a city in Atlanta, Georgia, he delivered a speech outlining his socio-political concept, consisting of race and class equality and close cooperation of the white and color population of the United States. He became the first black man in American history to speak to a white audience.

General Armstrong recommended Booker Washington as the organizer of the educational process at the newly opened Industrial Pedagogical Institute for people with black skin in Tuskegee, Alabama. In 1881, Booker Washington became the director of the Institute. The institute in Tuskegee gave secondary education intended for working in industry.

Washington expanded the training base of the institute and introduced the study of agricultural objects and crafts. At the same time, the level of his institute was such that people came from Europe, China and Japan to adopt the experience and especially the experience.

During the life of Washington, the Tuskegee Institute continued to grow and develop. The university complex and campus already consisted of more than a hundred new buildings, and the number of students reached 1,600.
