Say so.... Booker T did what he knew best. He used his way of negotiation to assure the development and longevity of schools

I think he was strategic. He developed and wielded his influence to lift the veil of ignorance and set individuals and institutions up for life.

You can not judge Booker T through the lens of 2018 or living in New England. The deep south was and is different. This debate is too complex fir twitter and the 30 slanted seconds in the film.

Was he problematic because he was critical of others?
