Rumi in one poem expresses his appreciation: "Attar was the spirit, Sanai his eyes twain, And in time thereafter, Came we in their train" and mentions in another poem: "Attar has traversed the seven cities of Love, We are still at the turn of one street". Rumi met another Sufi saint and mystic, Shams-e Tabrizi, on 15 November 1244 that completely changed his life. From an accomplished teacher and jurist, Rumi was transformed into an ascetic.
On July 27, 1894, W.E.B. Du Bois sent a letter to Booker T. Washington, asking if there was a job opening for him at Tuskegee University. A month later Booker T.

A couple years went by and by 1906 both W.E.B DuBois and Booker T. Washington had become polar opposites. [ ] As is evident from his Atlanta Compromise speech Booker T. Washington advocated for slow accomodationism, which meant he did not want African Americans to violently protest their rights, and that they should just accept where they stand in society.
