His department and publication at Atlanta University faced severe budget cuts as a result. He fumed that industrial education was getting the funding instead of academic. Du Bois was disgusted with Booker T. Washington’s optimistic description of Negro life to an audience in Europe. “It is one thing to be optimistic, self-forgetful and forgiving, but it is quite a different thing to misrepresent the truth.”
