Which statement about race relations in the north and south after reconstruction is true?

a. the south became integrated; the north remained segregated.

b. blacks mingled freely with whites in the south.

c. the north remained segregated by habit, not by law.

d. the north became integrated; the south remained segregated.

The answer is D.  Though blacks were treated equally in the North, the South continued to be segregated.  Despite the abolition of slavery, blacks were afforded the same opportunities as whites .  Many of them were also harassed by mobs of white raiders in order to keep them from voting as well assert their superiority over blacks.  Blacks couldn’t sit at the same table as whites nor could they dine at the same restaurants as whites.  It took another hundred years for blacks to finally be accepted in the South.
