Booker T Washington and Dr. Bledsoe


At our Wednesday night discussion, the similarities between Dr. Bledsoe (and the "Founder") and Booker T. Washington were brought up by several people and commented on by Dr. Maxwell. Here is a clip from the PBS Masters film, Ralph Ellison: An American Journey.  It features a section, "Dr. Bledsoe: A Fictional Booker T. Washington." Join us for a showing of the complete PBS documentary on August 23, at 7pm.
