Answer 1

Emancipation Proclamation
The Emancipation Proclamation was an executive order in 1863 by U.S. President Abraham Lincoln during the American Civil War, which declared the freedom of all slaves in those areas of the rebellious Confederate States of America that had not already returned to Union control.

Booker T. Washington
He worked his way through the school which is now Hampton University and attended college at Wayland Seminary. After returning to Hampton as a teacher, upon recommendation of Hampton's president, Sam Armstrong, he was named in 1881 as the first leader of the new normal school which became Tuskegee University in Alabama.

Answer 2

The Emancipation Proclamation was an order in 1863 by Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, which declared the freedom of all slaves in the areas of the Confederate States that had not already returned to Union control.

Schools Booker T. Washington attended:
Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute (Hampton University)
Wayland Seminary
