The correct answer is B.

The Twenty-first Amendment to the U.S. Constitution repealed the Eighteenth Amendment, which had mandated nationwide Prohibition on alcohol.

It is a unique Amendment, being the only one to repeal a prior one.

The reason for passing this Amendment was the growing black market for buying and selling alcohol, and the increasing rate of organised crime related to this activity.

The Twenty-first Amendment was passed on December 5, 1933.
