Read the quotation by w. e. b. du bois.

“we refuse to allow the impression to remain that the negro-american assents to inferiority, is submissive under oppression and apologetic before insults.”

in this quotation, du bois disagrees with booker t. washington’s accommodationist approach because du bois is expressing that

a) emporarily accepting discrimination will not lead to equality.
b)submitting to discrimination will end inequality.
c) fighting to end inequality could offend some people.
d) working toward equality for all is an important pursuit.

A) Temporarily accepting discrimination will not lead to equality.

African American leaders Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. Du Bois disagreed on the way equality should be pursued between blacks and whites. Booker T. Washington believed that equality needed to be gained slowly, and by making compromises. This attitude was named the "Atlanta Compromise" by W. E. B. Du Bois. The compromise consisted on tolerating discrimination, not seeking civil rights and enduring segregation in exchange for education and due process in law.

W. E. B. DuBois believed this attitude only reinforced stereotypes of African Americans as submissive, inferior and apologetic, and that it would not lead to equality.

nothing certain is known about what happened, but it seems that the country declined gradually, perhaps due to bad government, or, more likely, due to a series of bad harvests, which resulted in widespread and recurrent famine.
