Answer:

A is the Best Answer.  The nation remained racist and did not honor their service.

Explanation:

The Army remained rigidly segregated and Black combat soldiers fought with dignity, but still had to confront systemic racial discrimination and slander from their fellow white soldiers and officers. Ninety percent of African Americans lived in the South, most trapped in low-wage occupations, their daily lives shaped by restrictive “Jim Crow” laws and threats of violence. 1917 after the armistice,  On the night of Dec. 15, a police officer stormed into Lewis’ shack (one of the 380,000 Black soldiers returning from war), accusing him of robbery. Lewis, wearing his uniform and claiming the rights of a soldier, resisted arrest and fled. He was soon captured and jailed in nearby Hickman. Around midnight, a mob of approximately 100 masked men stormed the jail. They pulled Lewis out of his cell, tied a rope around his neck and hung him from a nearby tree. As the sun rose the next morning, crowds gathered to view Lewis’ lynched body. Racial violence worsened, the most horrific example being a massacre that took place in July 1917 in East St. Louis that left over one hundred black people dead and entire neighborhoods reduced to ashes.

how did southern blacks lose rights in the years after the thirteenth fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
olchik [2.2K]
Southern blacks lost rights in the years after the thirteenth fourteenth and fifteenth amendments because the North withdrew many of the troops that had been enforcing these new laws, leaving southerners to pass a series of Jim Crow laws that prohibited blacks from voting, gaining jobs, and a variety of other things in the South.
