As a leader of the African American community, Booker T. Washington a discovered hundreds of uses for the peanut. b believed developing the economic and educational resources of the black community was secondary to achieving political equality. c promoted black self-help but did not challenge segregation directly. d shared a similar political philosophy with W. E.B. Du Bois. e helped to found the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

c. Promoted black self-help but did not challenge segregation directly.

Explanation:

Booker T. Washington was a former slave who achieved his own freedom and then became an abolitionist to help other slaves be free. Some of his works including "The Story of My Life and Work" and "Up From Slavery" would become important sources and accounts of slave narrative writing.

While being sensitive to the suffering of the black people, Washington believed that abolishing segregation is not the only way to freedom. Rather, he believes that educating oneself and promoting one another, unity among the blacks and helpful to each other is more important than the abolition of the slavery system. To him, removing slavery is not what's important but uniting the people to help each other is more important.
