The NAACP challenged segregation by filing lawsuits in several states.

Explanation

The NAACP pursued school desegregation through a series of legal challenges in different states. These lawsuits built on one another and eventually led to the Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which ruled that segregation in public schools was unconstitutional. The choice saying the NAACP filed lawsuits in several states best describes this strategy.
