The correct answer is C) African Americans.

Some critics of the Great Society believed that anti-poverty programs benefited African Americans the most.

When Lyndon B. Johnson became President of the United States after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, he created the program called the Great Society to help the ones in need. Johnson wanted to reduce crime in America, end with poverty that affected so many people, and diminish the inequality of the US society. President Johnson was delivering a speech at the University of Michigan, in Ann Arbor, when he disclosed the program.
