Answer:

A. Philip Randolph had planned a large protest march in front of the White house in order to pressure president Truman.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Philip was one of the most powerful African-American voices in the early part of the 20th Century. He was responsible for developing the first all-African American labor Union and was an outspoken critic of US government policies.

His work was not only related to better conditions for employees but equal rights for African-American workers.

He first worked with President Franklin D. Roosevelt to issue order 8802 which helped to end discrimination against African-Americans in factories.

He also successfully lobbied President Truman, who finally issued order 9981 to end segregation in factories.
