In 1905, the Niagara Movement was formed by W.E.B. Du Bois and others to advocate for African American rights. Du Bois, a pioneering African American scholar, was deeply influenced by his experiences in the segregated South. The movement was short-lived, but its ideals persisted, especially after the 1908 Springfield riot, which highlighted racial tensions. This led to the formation of the NAACP in 1909, with Du Bois playing a key role. He served the organization for over two decades, continuing his fight for equality until his death in 1963, just before Martin Luther King's iconic speech.
