A. Civil War
B. Reconstruction
C. Civil Rights Movement
D. Carpetbagging
E. The Equal Rights Amendment Period
The correct answer is B) Reconstruction period. In the history of the United States, the Jim Crow era followed the reconstruction closely. Jim Crow was derived from a white actor depicted in the 1830s as a weak witty black slave. Jim Crow legislation was a collection of state and local statutes legalizing racial segregation.
The civil rights movement started in 1950 while the Jim Crow laws were founded and enacted in the United States of America that enforced racial segregation between the ends of reconstruction in 1877 in the south.
"B-Reconstruction." After reconstruction programs ceased and people stopped bothering about African-American liberties, the Jim Crow era began. It occurred between 1876 and 1965. Racist organizations with control over the public and local governments, such as the KKK, enforced discriminatory laws that harmed the African-American community.
