Correct answer: D. To help former slaves make the change to freedom
Details:
The Freedmen's Bureau was established by Congress in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War. The aim of the Bureau was to provide assistance to former black slaves (as well as poor whites) in the South during the Reconstruction period. The Freedmen’s Bureau provided food and housing, established schools, and made medical and legal assistance available. There was an intention of settling former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war, but that didn't materialize. Radical Republicans took over dominance in Congress and they determined that confiscated lands in the South should be returned to their original owners.

Quote:
'The
Negro has many pent-up resentments and latent frustrations. He has to
get them out. So let him march sometime; let him have his prayer
pilgrimages to the city hall; understand why he must have sit-ins and
freedom rides. If his repressed emotions do not come out in these
nonviolent ways, they will come out in ominous expressions of violence.'
Answer:
The state that has experienced a relatively large influx of Mexicans in recent decades and was featured in Immigrant Nation is Illinois.
Explanation:
The State of Illinois is one of the states that receives the most foreign immigrants throughout the United States. This is mainly because Chicago, the most important city in the state and the third most populous city in the nation after New York and Los Angeles, is one of the most important economic (and therefore labor) poles in the country.
According to statistics from the Census Bureau, 10% of the population of Illinois corresponds to descendants of Mexicans. In turn, 5% of the population of the state was born in Mexican territory. This situation increases in the Chicago Metropolitan Area, where 15% of the population is descended from Mexicans. Even in the city of Cicero, this percentage of descendants of Mexicans rises to 80%.
