Of the choices that you give here, the best is A.
Choice B is not true. It was not Du Bois who did this. Rather, it was Booker T. Washington who helped to establish such a school. That school was in line with Washington's idea that African Americans should learn trades and do a good job at relatively menial work. At that point, he felt, whites would acknowledge that blacks deserved rights. Du Bois did not agree with this so C is not correct.
Du Bois was born after slavery ended and was born in the North so D is not correct.
Unlike Washington, Du Bois did want full equality for African Americans and he did not want to have to wait a long time for it.
