This view by W.E.B. DuBois contributed most to the creation of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
William Edward Burghardt Du Bois was an American Civil Rights activists leader. He was among the founders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). He insisted that blacks needed legal rights and economic opportunities to develop their capacities and realize their cultural potential and because of that he helped to create the association.
