Answer 1

b

Answer 2

The KKK forced the southern blacks into complacency.  I'm guessing the answer is b though.  Since the landowners used to trap the sharecroppers with debt so they couldn't leave.

None of the above

sharecropping was done so that the white land owners could control the newly freed slaves.
