Answer 2

a.Participation of African-Americans in government increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Civil Rights Act of 1960 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, both promoted by President Lyndon B. Johnson of the Democratic Party, codified the achievements of the blacks. They ensured the end of racial segregation in public spaces, even if they were private property, and universal voting, regardless of educational level or social status. One of the results was the increased participation of African-Americans in government, which generated a representation of blacks in politics.
