Remarked about political dynasties in u. S. History, one thats often been compared to the virginia dynasty of the early republic. Both virginia and ohio laid claim to the mother president s title, even to the point of fighting over poor old William Harrison in all of his 30 days in office.

Next, mers he University Professor Chester Fontenot examines the life and legacy of booker t. Washington. He talks about washingtons early years at Tuskegee University and looked at his ideological platform which encouraged africanamericans to establish their own economic base while washington helped create many institutions for africanamericans such as the National Negro Business League, he also had opposition to his ideas, both during his lifetime and since. Fontenot also compared ideas and tactics of booker t. Washington and mgartin luther king jr. I made a statement in class that many of you disagreed with when i said that booker t. Washington was the most important and the most influential africanamerican leader until the election of president barack obama. He is even more significant in some ways because booker t.
