Well, as a child her town tried to mix whites and blacks, so segragation was not a big part of her childhood. But her parents died of yellow fever as there was an epidemic in her town. That forced her to have to take care of her little siblings and become a teacher. The only reason It could be C is be cause one of her friends was lynched and killed (that's why she started fighting out against lynching). But she didn't lose her parents to racism, she lost them to sickness.
