Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The authors of the 1876 Texas Constitution sought to dismantle the Reconstruction efforts of Governor E.J. Davis, who was a Republican seeking to impose reforms on the state's political and social systems. One of the ways they did this was by reinstating racial segregation in public education, which had been established during the era of Jim Crow laws. This policy helped to maintain the subordination of African Americans and limit their opportunities for social and economic advancement. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the policies of the 1876 Texas Constitution or the historical context of Reconstruction.
