The correct answer is C. White voting officials administered difficult literacy tests to African American voters
Explanation:
In politics, disenfranchisement occurs as a person or group of people are not allowed to vote usually due to policies, practices or requirements that prevent them from voting. In the U.S. this occurred with African Americans after the Reconstruction as laws and requirements were created in the South to stop African Americans from voting, this included asking them to pass literacy tests, understanding tests and also to pay poll taxes.
In the case of tests, these were only required to African Americans and in most cases, they were too difficult for them especially as they were not given education or were applied by white people who could change the results. Considering this, the statement about the disenfranchisement of African Americans that is true is "white voting officials administered difficult literacy tests to African American voters".
“The following statement about the disenfranchisement of African Americans in the South which is true is that white voting officials administered difficult literacy tests to African American voters. Since African Americans were denied the same standard of education as American Whites, when offered literacy tests they often had trouble completing them. The voting officials were aware of this, but did it anyways, as it was another way for them to hinder African Americans from voting and from entering the larger society.”
The reasons that allowed the Ottomans to reach that far into Europe are: The undermining of the Byzantine Empire by the European powers between 1200-1453. Religious strife in Europe, caused by the Reformation, isolating the Catholics and providing European allies to the Ottoman Empire. Superior military tactics.
