Question

question 1 of 10
how did older, established communities of free african americans in
southern cities respond to the new freed african americans who moved
there?

a. they offered them lots of help.

b. they made them go to separate schools.

c. they paid to send them back to africa.

d. they did not have the resources to help them.

Explanation:

To answer this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Established free African American communities in southern cities often had limited resources themselves, so offering "lots of help" is unlikely.
• Option B: The question is about the response to new freed African Americans moving in, and making them go to separate schools isn't the primary response of established communities (this is more about broader segregation systems, not the specific response of these communities).
• Option C: Paying to send them back to Africa was not a common response of these local established communities.
• Option D: Older, established free African American communities in southern cities typically had their own struggles and limited resources (due to discrimination, economic constraints), so they often did not have the resources to help the newly freed African Americans who moved there.

Answer:

D. They did not have the resources to help them.
