In 1906, W.E.B. Du Bois co-founded the Niagara Movement, a group of African American activists advocating for civil rights, political representation, and social justice. The movement aimed to combat racial discrimination and promote higher education for African Americans, challenging the more accommodating approach of Booker T. Washington. The Niagara Movement laid the groundwork for the later establishment of the NAACP in 1909.
