Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The Talented Tenth would act as role models and examples of African Americas who would lead the way for others to follow their example. The idea came in Du Bois's essay, "The Talented Tenth" if you're interested in the details of his acculturation of African Americans into society.
