The speech that helped Washington achieve national prominence as a leader in the civil rights movement is the "Atlanta Compromise." This speech was delivered by Booker T. Washington in 1895 and outlined his philosophy on race relations, advocating for vocational training for African Americans and suggesting that they should focus on economic self-improvement rather than immediate civil rights.
