W.E.B. Du Bois co-founded the NAACP in 1909 to combat racial discrimination and promote civil rights for African Americans. He sought to address the systemic injustices and inequalities prevalent in American society, particularly following the rise of Jim Crow laws. The organization aimed to secure legal rights and advocate for social justice through activism, legal challenges, and public education. Du Bois believed that a coordinated effort was essential to achieve true equality and challenge the prevailing racial attitudes of his time.
