Answer:

C) Support of laws protecting slavery in the 19th century.

Explanation:

America during the 1800s, after Reconstruction ended, and even into the 1900s showed clear tyranny in the treatment of African Americans. Southerners and Northerners alike, despite the several Amendments banning them from the indoctrination of slavery. Northerners, after it was proven that ending slavery would be a challenging task, gave up entirely on protecting African American rights, and the Southerners used methods like literacy tests and the Jim Crow Laws to put African Americans into slavery-like conditions. Groups like the KKK rose in attempts to stop Africans Americans from using their rights by committing acts of violence. America's treatment of the African American community being entirely against them shows what exactly can happen when the entire majority of a democratic nation are tyrannical.

Which constitutional question was central to the issue of Reconstruction?
yaroslaw [1]

The correct answer is A) Did the rebellious states ever become a separate nation.

Reconstruction is the era after the American Civil War. Considering the Confederacy's loss in the Civil War, the question became how would these rebellious states be received by the Union. In order to determine this process, the issue of whether or not the rebellious states were ever an independent nation cause significant problems. If these states were considered part of an independent sovereign nation, they would have to apply for statehood, get a state approved constitution, etc.
