Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is B because by 1870, all former Confederate states had been readmitted to the Union, and they soon replaced their Reconstruction governments with so-called "Redeemer" regimes, which were controlled by white Democrats who sought to reverse the gains made by African Americans during Reconstruction. The other answer choices are incorrect because they either have the wrong date or refer to specific groups or laws rather than the overall political situation in the former Confederate states.
