Cevap
Early civil rights organizing transitioned from smaller, exclusively Black-led groups like the Niagara Movement to larger, multiracial coalitions like the NAACP that utilized legal litigation.
The correct answer accurately characterizes the organizational and strategic evolution in the early 20th century. The Niagara Movement, while ideologically significant in demanding immediate equality, struggled with organization and funding. In 1909, its leaders joined white progressives to establish the NAACP, combining their civil rights agenda with a multiracial, bureaucratic structure and a well-funded legal strategy.
