There were several ways in which the South reversed much of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, but the best option from this list is "By passing Black Codes" This lasted all the way until the 1960s.

Answer:

c. By passing Black Codes

Step-by-step explanation:

The South turned around a great part of the Civil Rights Act of 1866 by passing Black Codes.

The Black Codes were laws that were presented in the Southern States confining black individuals' freedom and numerous Civil Rights averting ex-slaves to cast a ballot or serve on juries, requiring consent to travel, authorizing harsh work laws, putting orphans placed into forced apprenticeships and unequal laws and harsh punishments.
