This is part of a letter written by a famous African American, Jackie Robinson.

Considering that he talks about having patience, or not having, and the mistreating of "us" as a group, we can discard anything about activists. Generally, and obviously, blacks were not defenders of segregation and the letter doesn't bring up anything directly about the president.

In fact, he is generally speaking about how his ethnic group has been badly treated throughout the years. So the answer is:

B. the discrimination and bigotry faced by African Americans throughout history in the United States.

What parts of Muslim philosophy and learning do we see in our own culture today?
pogonyaev

If we look at the five principles of Islam, or the five pillars or the five fundamentals, belief practically ends with the first pillar of Islam. In other words, that affirmation that Allah is the only deity and that Muhammad is his messenger. After that, everything is action, is practice. The other four, i.e., praying, fasting, paying the zakat -- what I call a social tax -- and the hajj, involve action. Muslims are very action-oriented.
