I agree, but make sure this is what your text materials emphasize. A case can be made for B as well, because he did feel that the Jim Crow laws were to be fought against. The "correct" answer will be whatever the text you've been assigned think is most important.

I think A is correct.
Answered by Reed
Du Bois believed that African Americans should have exactly the same rights as white people, and that it was up to society as a whole not to discriminate.
