This entry from Encyclopedia Britannica features William Monroe Trotter, an African American journalist and vocal advocate of racial equality in the early 20th century. From the pages of his weekly newspaper, The Guardian, he criticized the pragmatism of Booker T. Washington, agitating for civil rights among blacks. Along with W.E.B. Du Bois and others, Trotter helped form the Niagara Movement and create the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), from which he later broke ranks.
