question 1 - 4
which factor led to the nadir of race relations in the united states from the late 1800s to the early 1900s?
the federal government delayed the removal of troops from the south.
local governments encouraged the desegregation of public schools in the south.
states encouraged the voluntary movement of african americans to isolated communities.
the federal government failed to enforce legislation granting african americans civil rights.

Explanation:

During the late 1800s - early 1900s, the federal government's failure to enforce civil - rights legislation for African Americans contributed to the nadir of race relations. Troop removal from the South was not delayed (it was actually removed which weakened Reconstruction efforts). Desegregation of public schools in the South was not encouraged during this period. There was no encouragement of voluntary movement of African Americans to isolated communities as a main factor in worsening race relations.

Answer:

The federal government failed to enforce legislation granting African Americans civil rights.
