Explanation:

The answer for the last previous questions should be,

C) Deny African Americans from gaining racial equality

As we know from history, the South (and the North!) was extremely racist, even post-Civil war.

Thus the answer for this question would be laws and cultures that limit and harm African Americans in the Reconstruction era.

A: It's not A because obviously banning slavery would bring African Americans more rights rather than less.

B: The KKK assaulted African American populations and families, pretty much terrorizing them till the Civil Rights era. This involved many horrific things done to the African American community, and tore apart families and cultures through killing, imprisoning, and maiming. This pretty much restricted African American protest for rights as they feared for their lives.

C: It's not C because the 15th Amendment gave African Americans suffrage, or the right to vote, which pretty much equals more rights and more representation in government.

D: Most African Americans were illiterate, or not allowed to receive an education. These types of tests sole purpose were to only allow suffrage to those who had access to education at the time, which was, unsurprisingly, white people and only white people. Not only that, these tests were only given to people who were minorities, with most white people given registration automatically. The questions were also meant to trick you, being worded in a way that could give the question nuance, which meant even if you answered correctly, the poll worker could say that the question was asking for something else and fail you. Thus, most African Americans did not gain the right to vote even though they were legally with suffrage.

E: Jim Crow laws are obvious, they isolated African Americans from white people. They dictated segregation, allowed discrimination in job applications, and other laws that oppressed black individuals.
