Answer:

D. The idea that a “Talented Tenth” of black Americans would lead social change.

Step-by-step explanation:

W.E.B. Du Bois argued that social change could be accomplished by developing the small group of college-educated African Americans he called the Talented Tenth, and with their intellectual accomplishments, they would rise up to lead the black masses.

Booker T. Washington urged African Americans to accept discrimination for the time being and concentrate on elevating themselves through hard work and education in industry, crafting, farming, and other skills to win the respect of whites and lead to African Americans being fully accepted as citizens.
