was rarely enforced.
was strictly enforced.
was criticized by republicans.
was upheld by the supreme court.

Explanation:

During the Reconstruction era in the South, the Civil Rights Act of 1875 faced significant resistance. Southern states and local authorities often ignored or actively worked against its provisions, leading to rare enforcement. The Supreme Court later struck it down (so it wasn't upheld), Republicans generally supported civil rights legislation at the time (so it wasn't criticized by them), and it wasn't strictly enforced due to the resistance.

Answer:

A. was rarely enforced.
