Answer

B
Douglass formed the Tuskegee Airmen.

Explanation

Frederick Douglass spoke out for emancipation and urged African Americans to join the Union army during the Civil War. He also helped recruit Black soldiers for the Union, including the 54th Massachusetts Infantry. Therefore, the best choice is that Douglass helped African Americans enlist in the Union army; the Tuskegee Airmen formed much later, during World War II.
