Following the end of the civil war, which group became victim to widespread violence in texas?
a) freedmen
b) former union soldiers
c) government officials
d) former confederate soldiers

I believe the most likely answer out of those four options would be: A) Freedmen

Explanation:

After the civil war ended, former slaves were freed from slavery. However, just because they were free did not mean they escaped prejudice against them. New laws called the "Black Codes" were passed in many southern states (Including Texas in 1866). These laws would restrict african american rights. Also, hate groups like the Ku Klux Klan would actively hunt and kill any african americans in "protest" of slaves being freed.
