Answer 1

Answer: D He was able to relate to the feeling of being torn between public life and private struggle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chadwick Boseman was exceptional when portraying Jackie Robinson and Thurgood Marshall because he suffered racism just like them.

Robinson and Marshall, being the first Black people in their respective fields, experienced brutal racism, similar to the racism that Boseman´s experienced himself being an African American actor. He didn´t only play historical figures devoted to racial justice, he was committed to the cause as well.
