Race Relations in America during Theodore Roosevelt’s Presidency.

On 16 October 1901, shortly after moving into the White House, Theodore Roosevelt invited Booker T. Washington, President of the Tuskegee Institute, to dine with him and his family, and provoked an outpouring of condemnation from southern politicians and press. This reaction affected subsequent White House practice, and no other African American was invited to dinner for almost thirty years. That dinner and subsequent racial issues affecting Roosevelt during his presidency are recorded in Edmund Morris’, Theodore Rex.
