. What was Booker T. Washington's objective in setting up and Turkegee
Institute? Did he realise his goals?  

Dear Studentkra,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Booker T Washington's aim in setting up a school in Tuskegee was to establish a friendship and a hearty-cooperation between the negros and the white community. At Tuskegee school the black would get education and vocational training to shape them into faithful, law-abiding and unresentful people. Booker was successful in realising his goals as the number of his students grew from thirty to fourteen hundred coming from twenty-seven states and territories like Africa, Cuba, Porto Rico, Jamaica and other foreign countries.
