Question 3 • (AG Q4) American History 8: 25-26 (AHostetler)
The Civil Rights Act of 1875 was effectively overturned in 1883, when the Supreme Court ruled that Congress could not use the Fourteenth Amendment to prohibit discrimination by private businesses. The 1883 Supreme Court ruling is therefore the correct choice. The Thirteenth and Fifteenth Amendments did not overturn the act, and Hayes’s election was not the ruling that struck it down.
