Answer:
<h2>d. A vision of the good society in a modernizing future.</h2>
Explanation:
The Russian and Chinese revolutions both had a commitment to Marxist ideology. However, the French Revolution occurred a number of decades before Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels set down the foundations of communist theory. There was a radical group during the French Revolution, led by François-Noël Babeuf (<em>aka </em>Gracchus Babeuf), which called for a communist style society. That movement was known as "The Conspiracy of Equals." But the French Revolution overall was not something motivated by communist-style thinking.
All three revolutions, though, did put forth their own vision of a good society that would be created in a better, more modern future. French Revolutionaries wanted to end the old regime of monarchy and aristocracy and put into place a society of liberty, equality and fraternity. The Bolsheviks in Russia wanted to pull Russia forward out of an non-industrial past into a cooperative, productive future. Mao Zedong's communist revolution in China also wanted a "Great Leap Forward" from an outdated pattern of society to a newly imagined, more modern order.
The Mississippi Plan
Mississippi was the first state to enact laws preventing blacks from voting. Through literacy tests and poll taxes, blacks were prevented from voting because of cost and the inability to read. This system eventually evolved to include gerrymandering the districts to exclude blacks and primaries for whites only.
The policy of Mississippi spread to other southern states within twenty years. Each state used their own methods but the goal was all the same: prevent blacks from voting and/or holding government office. These laws continued in the US until the 1960's when the national government outlawed the practices.
