Synopsis

Excerpt from The Black Man''s Burden

Among the students who entered Tuskegee Institute in the fall ofi a young man from Roanoke, Alabama. Like most of the students who came to us in those early days, he was very poor, and in order to make his way he found it necessary to enter the night school. This meant that he was compelled to work during the day in order that he could have the privilege of going to school for a few hours at night while he was slowly accumulating a fund sufficient to permit him to enter the day school later on.

Like most of the students of that day, too, he had had little preparation before entering Tuskegee and he was therefore compelled to begin at the very bottom and work his way up. He had not been in school very long, however, before he succeeded in attracting the attention of his teachers by the earnestness which he displayed, both in the work to which he was assigned during the day and in his studies in the class room at night. We were soon convinced, therefore, that we had found in him the sort of material we wanted in our students.
