Correct Answer: D</p>

Facing rising debts in the late 19th century, farmers advocated the free coinage of silver. Adherence to a gold standard contracted the federal money supply; an inflated currency would raise the price of farm goods, providing the farmers with the income to repay their debts. The Populists endorsed bimetallism in the elections of 1892 and 1896.</p>

The Civil Rights Act of 1964
A. completed the desegregation of the armed forces
B. integrated all colleges and universities
C. banned segregation in public places
D. outlawed poll taxes and literacy tests
E. proposed the Equal Rights Amendment</p>

^I’m between C and D. I know A and E aren’t true (A was something Truman did; E is just weird). I’m gonna pick C.</p>

I would also say C. I’m pretty sure that it did not outlaw poll taxes and literacy tests. The 24th Amendment comes into play for the poll taxes.</p>

I would say C as well, the others don’t seem right.</p>

Ok, I was right. Poll taxes were outlawed by the 24th amendment, and literacy tests were outlawed by the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The answer has to be C.</p>
