Hotel?

DuBois and the Niagara Movement were not denied a hotel in Buffalo. As the external link indicates, they specifically sought an out of the way resort. For purposes of historical comparison, the National Association of Colored Women held its national convention in Buffalo in 1901 during the Pan American Exposition and there is no record of discriminatory hotelkeepers at that time.

Also, exactly what sources are needed? The external links suply several. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guybrarian (talk • contribs) 01:33, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The text has been updated to reflect the conflict since two sources indicate that it was racism and a third indicates that it was logistics. Also, sources used on the page have been replaced using inline citations. CJ 19:44, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but I searched DuBois' papers in vain for any account of hotel discrimination in 1905. He mentions none. The Uncrowned Queens found what did happen in those same primary sources--he sought a pastoral location. Yes, the hotel discrimination story is popular and is repeated in every secondary source, probably because the Statement of Principles opposes discrimination in lodgings, thus implying that discrimination shadowed this event. But as common as such discrimination may have been, primary sources do not supply evidence that it occurred in this specific case. DuBois would have had every reason to publicize and exploit such an experience had it occurred. But he doesn't. Surely, Wikipedia editors appreciate the difference between primary and secondary sources. --guybrarian —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guybrarian (talk • contribs) 03:25, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Booker T. Washington

Unrelated, but I do believe that the movement held very diffrent views from Booker T. Washington, Washington wanted slow change, the movement wanted rapid sweeping changes.71.61.163.146 (talk) 04:21, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gibberish

Section 2.1 starts out strong, but, respectfully, the last sentences of the first paragraph collapse into gibberish. I'm not at all familiar with this information (which is how I came to be reading it), but if no one addresses this soon, I'll give it a shot. Be better if one of you history hounds correct it.

H. A. Thompson

I haven't been able to find any biographical information on co-founder H. A. Thompson, probably for lack of a first name. Anyone able to contribute? Lindenfall (talk) 22:19, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
