Why were the gains made by African-Americans in the Reconstruction era not

O
A. The Compromise of 1877 resulted in a lack of protection for freedmen and

O
B. Southern states created laws that, although not explicitly mentioning race,

C. Hate groups emerged that terrorized African-Americans and used violence to
maintain segregation and inequalities.
