Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

For the African Americans to become "full citizens", they must, first of all, be free men. After all, the US was founded on "liberty and justice for all", and you cannot truly be a citizen without these two. This means that they must first be free men (liberty), before they can be a citizen and obey the US law & order (justice).
