A Social Justice Hero: W.E.B. DuBois
What do you think about WEB Du Bois being part of social justice warrior? He was smart brave and a leader. Web Du Bois was an African American male he was the leader of the NAACP and he was the first African American to get a diploma. He was born in Great Barrington Massachusetts He grew up in a relatively tolerant integrated community. He was a teacher of history and economic at Atlanta he was one of the co-founder of the NAACP in 1909. So this man deserves a holiday! He showed that anyone could be a leader, could get a job, and especially a diploma.
WEB Du Bois was a social justice warrior for many reasons so today I’m going to be talking about them and how and why he should be a social justice warrior. First he was a very very smart man he was the first African American to get a diploma from Harvard University. After that he became a professor of economics a history at Atlanta University. So that describes how WEB Du Bois was a very intelligent man.
This paragraph describes how he was a leader. He was the leader of the NAACP he was also one of the founder of it. He was also the leader of the Niagara Movement a group of African American activists for black rights. Du Bois and his supporters opposed of Atlanta’s Compromise an agreement crafted by Booker T Washington. This describes how WEB Du Bois was a leader.
Now were going to talk about how he was brave. He was brave by leading the Niagara Movement against Booker T Washington. Racism was the main target for him so he protested strongly against it lynching Jim Cowl’s laws, and discrimination in education and employment. After the movie birth of a nation came out him and the NAACP Tried to ban it because of the racism in the movie but the fight was not successful but it drew more supporters to the NAACP. So that’s how WEB Du bois was brave.
So in conclusion WEB Du bois should have a national holiday. He did so much for right not just for African Americans but for everyone who needed it. So yes I personally think he should have his own nation holiday what do you think?
