Question 17 • United States History and Geography

Which best describes a similarity between W. E. B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington?

Answer
A
both formed the Niagara Movement
B
both supported full racial equality
C
both believed in the accommodationist approach to racial segregation
D
both engaged in activism to end racial segregation

Explanation

Both Du Bois and Washington worked to improve the lives of Black Americans and challenged racial discrimination, though they used different strategies. Du Bois called for immediate civil rights and helped found the Niagara Movement, while Washington emphasized economic advancement and accommodation. Thus, the similarity is that both engaged in activism to end racial segregation; they did not both form the Niagara Movement or share the same approach.
