Answer:

Full civil rights for African Americans

Step-by-step explanation:

"Grant disliked the Ku Klux Klan, which was becoming more and more violent against African Americans. He supported the Enforcement Acts of 1870 and 1871 and the Civil Rights Act of 1875, which helped protect the civil rights of African Americans."

Hello my names Keenan :)

The Enforcement Acts were three bills passed by the United States Congress between 1870 and 1871. They were criminal codes which protected African-Americans' right to vote, to hold office, to serve on juries, and receive equal protection of laws.
