Question

in the south, the passage of jim crow laws in the 1870s and 1880s led directly to the

organization of the ku klux klan
segregation of public facilities

Explanation:

Jim Crow laws were state and local statutes in the U.S. South that enforced racial segregation in all public spaces, including schools, transportation, and public buildings, from the late 19th century onward. The other options are incorrect: racial integration was the opposite of Jim Crow's intent; the Democratic Party gained power in the South during this era; the Ku Klux Klan was founded earlier, in 1865, before these laws were passed.

D. segregation of public facilities
