The correct answer is B. The violence in the South was increasingly disturbing and seemed to indicate that blacks would never really be free.

The violence in the South during Reconstruction was evident but it was not increasingly disturbing to Northerners. This is because the treatment African-Americans faced when they were enslaved was much worse than when they were free. During Reconstruction, the federal government oversaw the freeing of African-American citizens and used federal agencies to protect and help these citizens find jobs.

Answer: E. Northerners were growing increasingly hostile to president Johnson, and no longer wanted to support his agenda.

Explanation: I think an option is missing; because I had this question on Edmentum, and this was the answer. Also Johnson wasn’t mentioned in the lesson for this section at all, nor was he president.
