Up from Slavery is a striking autobiography tracing the journey of Booker T. Washington. Born intoa slave house, he had a tough time navigating the prejudices labelled on him and his community.The story meanders through various ups and downs during the most pivotal point in the AfricanAmerican history.From his struggle for education to him receiving an honorary degree from Harvard University, hecontinues to be an inspiration for the younger generations. The book remains evergreen by havingstood the test of time and geographical boundaries ever since its publication in 1901.
