Battle Royal Background

Internal & External Conflict Double Consciousness: (W. E. B. Du Bois) “It is a peculiar sensation, this double-consciousness, this sense of always looking at one's self through the eyes of others, of measuring one's soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity. One ever feels his two-ness,-- an American, a Negro; two warring souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled strivings; two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strength alone keeps it from being torn asunder”

Reconstruction – The era following the Civil War, – Southern States went from riches to rags – Freed slaves were now voting citizens

Booker T. Washington African American educator and political leader Believed that African Americans should pursue economic success in order to earn respect from White Americans Discouraged disobedience and outright hostility

Minstrel Show – “Black Face,” African Americans viewed as carefree, unintelligent, clownish entertainment

Social Responsibility Everyone – as individuals and as organizations – has a duty to help maintain the balance between what is good for themselves and what is good for the society around them.
