Answer:

I think it would be C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because during this time, many women were trying to fight for an equality of treatment, to be seen as equal as men. However, when it came to the 14th ammendment many women opposed it, just because they believed it was unfair that African Americans recieved this opportunity before them.

Hope it makes sense, good luck:)
