Option C,  It restricted the power of Black Codes already in force is the right answer.

The Black codes in the united states were the laws that limited the freedom of African Americans. These black codes were passed by the Southern states in 1865 and 1866. Enacted in July 1868, the 14th Amendment in the constitution of  America proposed the  Citizenship, the Equal Protection and the Due process under the law. This Amendment was an acknowledgement to the problems related to former slaves following the American Civil War. The Equal Protection clause declared that "a state may not refuse any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws".

Answer:

Rebelión armada impulsada y liderada por civiles, militares, y dirigentes políticos de la recién conformada agrupación Unión Cívica, contra la crítica coyuntura político económica que atravesaba el gobierno de Miguel Juárez Celman.

Por otra parte, concibió el nacimiento de un nuevo partido político: Unión Cívica Radical (UCR), que a la fecha y junto al Partido Justicialista (PJ), son los que han dominado la vida política argentina de los últimos 100 años.

La disputa política dejó de ser una cuestión de caudillos y pasó a ser un tema social en el que intervinieron todos los actores sociales de la época: obreros reunidos en sindicatos, la clase media y la oposición.

Juárez Celman, un presiente en apuros

La profunda crisis financiera provocada por la burbuja especulativa que promovió la gestión de Celman generó el default argentino, la quiebra del Banco Nacional y una serie de complicaciones en la realidad laboral con la caída de salarios, huelgas, y desempleo en crecimiento.

Y para completar el caótico escenario se sumó el rechazo al marcado autoritarismo ejercido por Juárez Celman, y el sistemático e incontrolable fraude electoral perpetrado por el conservador Partido Autonomista Nacional (PAN) que gobernaba casi sin oposición desde mediados del siglo XIX.

Aunque promotor de un ideario liberal, el PAN, en la práctica, fue un partido conservador que ejecutó políticas muy cuestionables para mantenerse en el poder: manipulación de elecciones, clientelismo, restricción de las libertades.

El desmedido autoritarismo en el que incurrió Celman implicó no solamente el rechazo de sus opositores políticos sino también la de su propio partido en la figura de su antecesor y concuñado, el General Roca, y de la propia iglesia católica a quien se ocupó de castigar con sus decisiones

What two groups were usually NOT admitted into public high schools and colleges?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:here

Explanation:

Tóth Árpád Gimnázium [hu], a secondary school in Debrecen, Hungary

A secondary school describes an institution that provides secondary education and also usually includes the building where this takes place. Some secondary schools provide both lower secondary education (age 12 to 15) and upper secondary education (age 15 to 18) i.e. levels 2 and 3 of the ISCED scale, but these can also be provided in separate schools, as in the American middle and high school system. In the UK, elite public schools typically admit pupils between the ages of 13 and 18. UK state schools accommodate pupils between the ages of 11 to 18.

Secondary schools follow on from primary schools and prepare for vocational or tertiary education. Attendance is usually compulsory for students until age 16. The organisations, buildings, and terminology are more or less unique in each country.[1][2]
