Patricia J. Williams, an african american academic, writes about her experiences regarding redlining. She states, "I was treated differently when lenders and real estate agents realized that i was an african american." Which of the following is most likely to have occurred before they realized that she was an African American?
a. she was asked fewer questions about her finances.
b. she was considered a "risk" due to her financial situation.
c. she experienced unkept appointments.
d. she was quoted higher rents compared to people of other ethnicities.

a. she was asked fewer questions about her finances.

Explanation:

As the statement indicates that Patricia was treated differently when lenders and real estate agents realized that she was an african american and considering the options given, the one that would have most likely ocurred before they realized that she was an African American is that she was asked fewer questions about her finances as she was treated as everyone else.

The other options are not the answer because that she was considered "risk" due to her financial situation, that she experienced unkept appointments and that she was quoted higher rents compared to people of other ethnicities would have been behaviors that lenders and real state agents would have taken when they found out that she was an african american.

here are some major conflicts i found. maybe pick one and do more research on it. (cause i ain't writing 6 paragraphs)

in 1877, the nez perce war took place.

1881 - president james garfield was assassinated.

1882 - the chinese exclusion act was passed.

1883 - a decision in the civil rights cases legalized racial segregation in the united states.

1887 - the dawes act was passed.

1893 - the panic of 1893 took place. (what a creative name)

and there are probably other topics you can find if you just search up "united states timeline," or "conflicts in the 19th century for america."

then once you find a topic you like find out how it affected the people of america and what not. (sorry if this feels a bit short changed, history was and never will be one of my strong topics)

d)to gain support for the independence movement.

hope this : )
