W. E. B. Du Bois

Du Bois resigned from the NAACP for the second time

1948
U.S.

Du Bois's association with prominent communists made him a liability for the NAACP, especially since the FBI was starting to aggressively investigate communist sympathizers; so – by mutual agreement – he resigned from the NAACP for the second time in late 1948.
