The correct answer is D. The Civil Rights Act of 1875

Explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1875 was an important act that supported equality by stating all citizens rights' should be protected including the right to treated with equality and fairness, which protected African-Americans from exclusion or unfair treatment. This act was first proposed by the senator Charles Summer in 1970, who also created the first draft in subsequent years. However, this was only approved in 1975 and Summer did not live to witness it. Additionally, the act was supported and sponsored by others including the senator Benjamin Butler, who also worked against organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan. Thus, these two senators were closely associated with this act.

regarding the law, the 15th amendment was specifically designed thinking in the rights of black free men.

even though ratified on february 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th amendment would not be fully applied for a long time.poll taxes and literacy tests would allow southern states disenfranchise african americans. only in 1965 the voting rights for african americans would be actually able to vote in the south.

in 1965, president johnson signed the voting rights act, which aimed to overcome legal barriers that prevented african americans from voting as it was guaranteed by the 15th amendment to the u.s. constitution.
