Du Bois was a sociological and educational pioneer who challenged the established system of education that tended to restrict rather than to advance the progress of black Americans. He challenged what is called the "Tuskegee machine" of Booker T. Washington, the leading educational spokesperson of the blacks in the U. S. As a sociologist and historian, Du Bois called for a more determined and activist leadership than Washington provided.
Unlike Washington, whose roots were in southern black agriculture, Du Bois’s career spanned both sides of the Mason-Dixon Line. He was a native of Massachusetts, received his undergraduate education from Fisk University in Nashville, did his graduate study at Harvard University, and directed the Atlanta University Studies of Black American Life in the South. Du Bois approached the problem of racial relations in the United States from two dimensions: as a scholarly researcher and as an activist for civil rights. Among his works was the famous empirical sociological study, The Philadelphia Negro: A Social Study, in which he examined that city’s black population and made recommendations for the school system. Du Bois’s Philadelphia study was the pioneer work on urban blacks in America.
Du Bois had a long and active career as a leader in the civil rights movement. He helped to organize the Niagara Movement in 1905, which led to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), established in 1909. From 1910 until 1934, Du Bois edited The Crisis, the major journal of the NAACP. In terms of its educational policy, the NAACP position was that all American children and youth should have genuine equality of educational opportunity. This policy, which Du Bois helped to formulate, stressed the following themes: (1) public schooling should be free and compulsory for all American children; (2) secondary schooling should be provided for all youth; (3) higher education should not be monopolized by any special class or race.
As a leader in education, Du Bois challenged not only the tradition of racial segregation in the schools but also the accommodationist ideology of Booker T. Washington. The major difference between the two men was that Washington sought change that was evolutionary in nature and did not upset the social order, whereas Du Bois demanded immediate change. Du Bois believed in educated leadership for blacks, and he developed a concept referred to as the "talented tenth", according to which 10 percent of the black population would receive a traditional college education in preparation for leadership.
It can be inferred from the last paragraph that
选项
A、many blacks were prepared for leadership.
B、Du Bois was in favor of "elite education" for blacks.
C、Washington and Du Bois had never been friends.
D、only the top 10 percent were worth educating.
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。文章最后一句说根据杜·波依斯的“有才华的10%”的概念,10%的黑人会接受传统的大学教育,从而为成为未来的领导人做准备,这并不表明这些人已经准备好,故[A]不正确;[C]项“华盛顿和杜·波依斯从来都不是朋友”,文中没有提到,属于随意臆断,也可排除;[D]项“仅仅只有10%的人值得受教育”与杜·波依斯的人人享有平等的受教育机会的观点相悖。根据talented tenth可推断,杜·波依斯支持对于黑人的“英才教育”,由此可知,[B]为本题答案。
