Answer:

D) Granting former slaves suffrage

Explanation:

The Fifteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was one of the three amendments enacted after the American Civil War to ensure equality for black Americans, who had been harshly discriminated for decades.

This Amendment, ratified on 1870, was created primarily for the purpose of granting former slaves suffrage: It guarantees the right to vote of all U.S.'s male citizens (African Americans had already been considered citizens under the 14th Amendment), stating that this right will not be denied or abridged by the federal or the state government on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

I believe the answer is D as B and C are just completely false and while A could be possible its not the answer because granting voting rights to former slaves doesn't really punish the south but it does give former slaves suffrage. So its D

What was the economic effect of the Great Depression on America’s farmers?
KiRa [710]
Farmers were probably the hardest hit group of people during the Great Depression. They were already having a tough time from the 1920's because during WWl, they had been making record numbers of crops that were being sent over seas, but once the war ended they ended up with a surplus which dropped the price of wheat and farmers could hardly make a living. Farmers had also bought tractors and farm equipment with an installment plan, which means they buy now and pay later. This caused many farmers to go into debt because once the depression hit they no longer could afford to pay them off. To make matters worse, unsafe farming practices, like not rotating crops, cause the top soil to blow off and huge dust storms, called the Dust Bowl occurred making life miserable for farmers and their families.
