reconstruction?

a. guaranteeing all african american males the right to vote

b. restoring the property of former confederates

c. making african americans pass a complicated series of tests to
vote

d. preventing african americans from being citizens

Explanation:

Radical Republicans during Reconstruction aimed to secure rights for African Americans. Option A aligns with their goals of ensuring African American males' right to vote (e.g., through the 15th Amendment - related efforts). Option B is incorrect as they were not in favor of restoring Confederates' property. Option C describes literacy tests (used to disenfranchise, not Radical Republicans' goal). Option D is wrong as they supported African American citizenship (e.g., 14th Amendment).

Answer:

A. Guaranteeing all African American males the right to vote
