Explanation:

Question 5

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) focuses on protecting civil liberties and rights like 1st Amendment rights, equal protection, due process, and privacy for all people regardless of various characteristics. The Red Cross focuses on humanitarian aid, Amnesty International on political prisoners/human rights globally (not as US - focused on these specific US rights), and NAACP focuses on African - American civil rights (more narrow than the broad rights here).

After World War I, there was economic and social instability in the US. The KKK resurged, targeting immigrants, African - Americans, and others. Option A is incorrect as there was no mass influx of African immigrants. Option B: women's suffrage support wasn't a factor for KKK resurgence. Option C: post - WWII is wrong as the 1920s is post - WWI.

The Volstead Act was to enforce the 18th Amendment (Prohibition). It authorized the IRS (specifically its agents) to enforce Prohibition. Option A: not about gasoline tax. Option B: moonshine was part of Prohibition but the Act's main role was enforcement. Option C: not about bartending schools.

Answer:

A. American Civil Liberties Union
