Answer: C. 13th

Explanation:

The Civil War (1861-1865) was a war fought between the Union ("The North") and Confederate states (" The South") of the United States over the issue of slavery. The Union wanted to dismantle the harsh system of forced labor on Black individuals, while the Confederate wanted to maintain their slave system and the wealth accumulated because of it in the southern economy.  

The Confederate general, Robert E. Lee, surrendered his troops to Union General Ulysses S. Grant in April 1865, effectively ending the war. In December 1865, the U.S Constitution abolished slavery through the 13th Amendment, except as a punishment for a crime: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

Unfortunately, the clause of the amendment which prohibits slavery, except as a punishment for a crime led to the over-criminalization of Black Americans with vagrancy laws and the use of Black codes.
