The correct answer is C. White voting officials administered difficult literacy tests to African American voters

Explanation:

In politics, disenfranchisement occurs as a person or group of people are not allowed to vote usually due to policies, practices or requirements that prevent them from voting. In the U.S. this occurred with African Americans after the Reconstruction as laws and requirements were created in the South to stop African Americans from voting, this included asking them to pass literacy tests, understanding tests and also to pay poll taxes.

In the case of tests, these were only required to African Americans and in most cases, they were too difficult for them especially as they were not given education or were applied by white people who could change the results. Considering this, the statement about the disenfranchisement of African Americans that is true is "white voting officials administered difficult literacy tests to African American voters".

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached or further references, we can say the following.

The ways in that the colonists deserved better treatment by the English government were in that they were hard-working people that strove to make a living. These American colonists deserved better treatment but the English crown continued to impose many heavy taxations -sone tomes, nonsense taxation- that angered the colonists to the point of demanding independence from Britain.

Taxation such as the Townsend Acts, the Navigation Acts, the Stamp Act, or the Tea Act were examples of the ways England tried to punish and exploit the colonies. And to make things worse, colonists did not have a voice or representation in the British Parliament.
