What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

W.E.B. Du Bois's vision for African American uplift and disagreement with Booker T. Washington
A contrast between the ideas of WEB Du Bois and Booker T Washington concerning the education of African-Americans. The paper focuses on the critique of Washington offered by Du Bois in his work The Souls of Black Folk. The paper suggests that Washington's insistence on vocational and technical training for blacks is seen by Du Bois as too materialistic and not sufficiently devoted to the idea of equality. The paper then discusses Du Bois's own suggested program, that blacks should insist upon the same sort of educational experience as whites, in the interest of dignity and equality.
