Booker T Washington

Booker T Washington
Posted By: Victoria Jones on May 11, 2006


This morning while on my way to work I was listening to TJMS (Tom Joyner Morning Show). Well there is a segment where he gives a Black History Fact and today that fact was that Booker T Washington actually died from high blood pressure and not syphillis. His family gave authorization to let a group of people do this study and they found out his actual cause of death. The question is do you think that the real cause will now kill the 100 year old talk of him dying of syphillis?? Will it be changed now for new history???
