The correct answer is A. The choice between hatred and crippling injustice.
Explanation: In "Notes of a Native Son" by James Baldwin, the narrator addresses the black community's struggle between choosing to hate the white community - which it turn is self-destructive for the black community - or choosing to deal with their oppressors, and facing injustices in hopes of obtaining racial equality. He compares this dilemma to the descision of "amputation or gangrene" by stating that amputation (choosing hatred) is quick and may not even be necessary, or gangrene (choosing crippling justice) which is a long painful process.
