Jesse Lee Peterson's SCAM is focused towards Booker T.Washington's views on education for blacks, in debate with W.E.B Dubois: STRAIGHT UP: cheers for Washington, ZIPPO for Du Bois… Washington's experience as a former slave triumphs over Du Bois perspective on what status' blacks should retain in society. It seems as though Dubois in defense of "Pan Africanism" is not content of how blacks are misrepresented in society. Although Du Bois intentions are to give blacks a "name" in society, he preaches that their education should be segregated, away from the whites who would deviate blacks from reaching their full potential. Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson’s “Scam” puts into perspective the state of the black Americans in today’s society. The Pan Africanism movement introduced by Dubois is in effect the downfall of the black race. The need to separate from the white American society, and hold onto hatred to America has crippled the black community, distracting them from becoming a successful race in America. Instead of separating blacks from whites, Booker T. Washington had another idea, teaching blacks practical skills, enabling them to contribute and succeed in American society. Dubois preached protest and agitation putting up a wall between the whites and blacks that has done a serious disservice to the black community to this day. The anti American sentiment with in the black race, still bickering about reparations and mistreatment has not gotten the black community any further along. Booker T. Washington preached that hard work, learning practical skills, and promoting racial peace would be the key to delivering the black race from bondage. What happened to the black race throughout American history is inexcusable on the part of the white race, however filling blacks with hate, sorrow, and anti American attitude, will only continue to hold the race back and limit the great potential they have proven capable of achieving.

Before we get too carried away on "zots", I say this is a newbie with formatting probs and lack of link. Rev. Peterson is one of the good guys.

(I have leaped too soon on a zot hunt and had to apologize profusely.)
