Henry McNeal Turner's reluctance to take a seat in the Georgia legislature had only one outcome: It conveyed a message that, despite their right to vote, African Americans were not allowed to occupy the elected office. As a result, choice C is the right response.
In 1868, Turner was chosen to be a representative in the Georgia state legislature. 24 parliamentarians, including him, were soon expelled for the "crime" of being Black. Turner was the first African-American chaplain in the United States Colored Troops during the American Civil War after being chosen by the US Army in 1863.
After the war, he was appointed to Georgia's Freedmen's Bureau. He moved to Macon during the Reconstruction era, and in 1868 he was appointed to the state legislature.
He started two journals, The Voice of Missions (1893–1900) and the Voice of the People, to promote immigration (1901–1904). Between 1895 and 1896, Turner organized two ship trips that carried over 500 people to Liberia.
