Read this excerpt from James Baldwin‘s “notes of a native son” But I knew that it was folly, as my father would have said, this bitterness was folly. It was necessary to hold onto the things that mattered. The dead man mattered, the new life mattered; blackness and whiteness did not matter; to believe that they did was to acquiesce in one’s own destruction. Hatred, which could destroy so much, never failed to destroy the man who hated and this was an immutable law.

Which sentence best explains how Baldwin conveys his ideas on hatred and acceptance in this excerpt?
A. He excepts that hatred destroyed his father and vows not to succumb it.
B. He accepts the hating discrimination of any kind is the best way to live.
C. He accepts that his father was right about the hatred and it’s effects.
D. He accepts that hatred can destroy and skin color is unimportant.
