In a 1918 editorial, W.E.B. Du Bois advised African Americans to stop agitating for equality and toproclaim their solidarity with White Americans for the duration of the First World War. The editorial surprised many African Americans who viewed Du Bois as an uncompromising African American leader and a chief opponent of theaccommodationist tactics urged by Booker, T.Washington.In fact, however, Du Bois often shifted positions along thecontinuum between Washington and confrontationists such as William Trotter. In 1895, when Washington called on African Americans to concentrate on improving their communities instead of opposing discrimination and agitating for political rights,Du Bois praised Washington’s speech. In 1903, however, Du Bois aligned himself with Trotter, Washington’s militant opponent, less for ideological r
easons than because Trotter had described to him Washington’s efforts to silencethose in the African American press who opposed Washington’s positions. reflected not a change in his long-term goals but rather a pragmatic response in the face of social pressure: government officials had threatened African American journalists with censorship if they continued to voicegrievances. Furthermore, Du Bois believed that African Americans’ contributions to past war efforts had brought them somelegal and political advances. Du Bois’ accommodationism did not last, however. Upon learning of systematic discriminationexperienced by African Americans in the military, he called on them to “return fighting” from the war.
