Blacks were disproportionately in the rural South in the years following emancipation.

Affirmative action policies, intended to counter discrimination, actually led to greater stereotyping and discrimination in the workplace.

African Americans routinely had their property stolen from them, defaced, and/or destroyed.

Answer:

i know it's wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the choices were push factors for settlers looking to move West in the 19th century.

In the 19th century, railroads expanded. This followed after the Civil War. It allowed people to venture into the vast, open land of the West. Many people settled into the area such as the white people from the East and the African-Americans from the Deep South. These African-Americans were looking for a better living condition. The "gold rush" also increased the number of settlers moving to the West. Once of which was the discovery of gold in "Dakota Territory." This happened in 1874.
