Answer:

A.The California Constitution outlawed slavery.

Step-by-step explanation:

Between the 1890s and 1910, large groups of Black Americans migrated to Los Angeles from Texas, Shreveport, New Orleans and Atlanta to escape the racial violence and bigotry of the South with hopes for better access to wealth.
