a. the reconstruction acts
b. the civil rights act of 1866
c. the tenure of office act
d. the homestead act

The correct answer is B. The act of Congress that extended the rights of African Americans to sue, make contracts and own land was the Civil Rights Act of 1866.

Explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1866 is a federal law which states that anyone born in the US is an American citizen regardless of his race, "color", previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude. It is the law by which, after the Civil War, slavery was abolished in the former Confederate states and therefore throughout the United States. The Civil Rights Act of 1866 was voted under the presidency of Andrew Johnson and passed despite his veto. The Civil Rights Act of 1866 does not apply to foreigners, diplomats and Native Americans confined to reserves.

As a result, since 1866 in the United States it is not legal to discriminate on a racial basis when offering a job or selling or renting a property.
