Respuesta :

Your answer is A.Philip Randolph




Answer:

A. Philip Randolph

Explanation:

Philip Randolph, was a unionist of the Labor Movement and the Movement for Civil Rights in the United States. He was born in Crescent City (Florida). His father was a pastor of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and moved his family to Jacksonville in 1891. In 1911, Randolph moved to New York, specifically to Harlem, seeking to become an actor.

Randolph's parents were against the son's artistic aspirations, so once he was in New York University he went on to study Economics and Politics. It was at that university where he met his wife, Lucille Green, a teacher who quit her job to open a beauty salon when her first husband died.

He teamed up with his wife and student Chandler Owen to create The Messenger, a radical magazine in Harlem in 1917. He was a great political leader.
