Finding a Way Out: An Autobiography

by Robert R. Moton

Finding a Way Out is the autobiography of Robert R. Moton, a prominent African American educator and civil rights leader. Born into slavery in Virginia in 1867, Moton went on to become the president of Tuskegee Institute, a historically black college founded by Booker T. Washington. In his autobiography, Moton recounts his experiences growing up in the Jim Crow South, his education at Hampton Institute and Harvard University, and his work as an educator and civil rights activist. Moton's autobiography is a valuable historical document that provides insights into the lives of African Americans during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
