Answer:

B) Freedmen's Bureau

Step-by-step explanation:

The Freedmen's Bureau was established in 1865 by the Congress to help African American freed slaves and poor people after the Civil War providing food, clothing, healthcare and education so they could learn to read and write. The Freedmen's Bureau agency also helped freed slaves to negotiate labor contracts with Southern white employers and assisted in finding their family members and abandoned territories so they could settle in and adjust to their new life.
