    - But.

    Explanation:

    Transition words are exemplified as the words that primarily function to establish the link or connectivity between the words, phrases, sentences, or paragraphs to enhance the flow of ideas by enabling them to move from idea to another smoothly. These words provide clarity and exemplify the relationship or connectivity between the ideas.

    As per the question, 'but' is functioning as the transition word that acts as the bridge or link between the two ideas 'hated the unbelievable streets and the Negroes' and 'it was a folly ... 'bitterness was folly'. The 'but' as a transition word marks the shift of transition from the 'hate or bitterness that the speaker had for Negroes' to implying that 'this bitterness was folly' in the second statement. Thus, 'but' is the answer.
