How Did African Americans Tend to Respond to White Supremacy

How did African Americans tend to respond to white supremacy in the South at the end of the nineteenth century?

A) Most African Americans completely surrendered to the challenges brought by white supremacy, as they faced a life devoid of economic opportunities with no incentive for activism.
B) Whereas middle-class African American men had many opportunities to lash out, middle-class African American women lacked their own social clubs and opportunities to show leadership.
C) Most African Americans refused to adjust to the realities of white supremacy and segregation and defied these systems every day with total disregard for the possibility of punishment.
D) Angry about having achieved true freedom only to see it slip away, most African Americans turned away from religion entirely and formed atheist organizations as a means of coping.
E) Despite great adversity, many African Americans embraced their own lively culture and the new economic opportunities that segregation had ironically opened up in terms of black businesses.
