Option: D. circumvented rights in the Civil War Amendments.

Explanation:  

The Black Codes and white extremist groups circumvented rights in the Civil War Amendments. The South issued sets of Black Codes called Jim Crow Laws to separate African Americans from the whites. The 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments gave rights to freed African American by abolishing slavery, right to vote, and equal rights in American. These new changes not seen as good for the White Southerns and Northerner because they believed that African Americans were to be controlled and regulated rather than setting them free.
