jim crow laws in the south
after the emancipation proclamation, blacks fill local and national offices, but
white southerners are determined to pass new state laws to curtail this
progress.

Explanation:

Jim Crow laws were a series of state and local statutes that enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States. They aimed to remove political power from African Americans and maintain white supremacy. Option D is incorrect as Jim Crow laws did not encourage integration. Option A is wrong because these laws actually restricted voting rights for African Americans (e.g., through poll taxes, literacy tests). Option C is also incorrect as Jim Crow laws were not about equal pay; they were about racial segregation and disenfranchisement.

Answer:

B. Enforced segregation and removed political power from African Americans
