Why did W.E.B. Du Bois oppose Booker T. Washington's view on racial discrimination?

Du Bois and many other African American laves disliked or even hated, Booker T. Washington for his accommodation of segregation of blacks, and for blaming black poverty on the black community. Washington told the African American community this and to accept their discrimination. In response to this, Du Bois renewed his demands for immediate social and economic equality for African Americans.
In 1903, Du Bois displayed his message to Washington in his book, The Souls of Black Folk. In response to this book, African Americans held a civil rights conference in Niagara Falls in 1905. In 1909, African Americans joined forces with prominent white reformers in New York to form the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, or NAACP, which aimed for nothing less than full equality among races.
