It was founded at the beginning of the twentieth century in 1909 with the sole purpose of fighting for the rights of African Americans, working mainly in the area of education and the judiciary, with respect to protecting this minority of racist laws, such as Jim Crow, which intended to deprive blacks of possessing civil rights.

This is a direct consequence of the USA being the western superpower, she obliged her former allies to free their colonies. On one hand that has to do with their history, that is to say, a republic born after fighting a king. But it also has an economic explanation; independent countries will probably buy more American goods than colonies.

Finally, all this happened because European colonialist countries did not have any power to achieve any different deal with the USA.
