Answer:

The African Americans

Step-by-step explanation:

The 1877 Commitment meant mainly that the white class regained power in the southern state governments, thus the African Americans were virtually abandoned to the new Democratic leaders. This commitment favored the segregation and establishment of the Jim Crow Laws.
