Read this excerpt from james baldwin's "notes of a native son": it began to seem that one would have to hold in the mind forever two ideas which seemed to be in opposition. the first idea was acceptance, the acceptance, totally without rancor, of life as it is, and men as they are: in the light of this idea, it goes without saying that injustices is a commonplace. but this did not mean that one could be complacent, for the second idea was of equal power: that one must never, in one's own life, accept these injustices as commonplace but must fight them with all one's strength. which sentence best explains how baldwin conveys his ideas on injustice and acceptance in this excerpt? a. he says that it is fruitless to fight injustice and that one must accept it. b. he says that injustice is a fact of life and people must accept it. c. he says that accepting life the way it is does not mean tolerating injustice. d. he says that you can't accept injustice; you must fight it with all your might.
