Which of the following accurately describes why, when the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was formed, the organization chose to use the court pathway instead of other pathways to advance its goals?
 
  a. Lack of responsiveness from elected officials and clear evidence of racial discrimination led the organization to use the pathway of action that was open to it.
  b. Hostility toward African Americans had subsided, so the organization saw the opportunity to move forward in the courts with greater acceptance on the part of both judges and the public.
 c. Most law schools had opened admissions to African Americans, so with the growing number of black lawyers, the court pathway seemed to be a natural course.
  d. The separate-but-equal doctrine of Plessy v. Ferguson had been overturned, which allowed for the entry of African Americans into the political and legal arenas.
