Question

What was it about the NAACP that Randolph disagreed with

Answer 1

Basically, many civil rights leaders felt the NAACP was an institution devoted not to expanding civil rights for all African Americans, but promoting the economic privileges of a small, black middle class. As I recall from my Twentieth Century Black Militancy class in university, for a long time the NAACP never pursued litigation to advance social justice for all blacks. It was perceived as an organization that was content to advance a certain amount of economic progress within the larger white power frame and without trying to change the existing white power structure, which was dominated by segregation and jim crow.
