How did the events of the Leo Frank case and its outcome reflect the South during the New South Era? A. Many white Georgians in the region trusted African Americans more than they trusted Europeans.
B. Many white Georgians in the region were afraid that successful businesses in Atlanta would end their agricultural industry.

D. Many white Georgians in the region were tired of the state failing to adequately punish white supremacists.

B

Explanation: Many old white southerners still were not accustomed to the new south and wanted the old south, such as agricultural dominated industry, to maintain. Because there was an opening for industry, many northerners (snarkily called “Carpetbaggers” by southerners) came to the south to create profit. Southerners did not like this. Leo Frank, being from the north and also being a Jew, was an easy target to prosecute. They did not want northerners snatching away their agriculturalx and the antisemitism of the south did not help his case.
